therook   10 #13 Posted October 14, 2014 Would you believe it they collected it today before I got chance to use any of your advise!  They mus use this site!  10 1/2 weeks for £120, I suppose thats value for money ;-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

sheffield8 Â Â 10 #15 Posted October 15, 2014 The same happened to me. It took ages for the skip to arrive and took 3 weeks for them to take it. They were not bothered in the slightest that I was struggling to get into my garage and I would not never use them again. Â I only used them because they were reasonably priced but not much good at providing a delivery or collection service. Â Arthurs or Bradwells or HR skip services for me next time as I have heard good reviews about these companys, Which ever one provides the best quote. If they are useless then I will try another company. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Phil the Dog   10 #16 Posted October 16, 2014 Same happened to me with YWC. Delivered quickly & driver was very helpful.  Took them ages to collect it, despite phoning them almost every day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
thorphanger   10 #17 Posted October 16, 2014 We have used Bradwell Skips several times and they have always collected their skips promptly when we have asked them to fetch them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Vaperking   10 #18 Posted October 17, 2014 Same here, numerous phone calls and it was still sat on the drive for weeks. it was only cos I found out my sister knows the owner and she pinged her on Facebook that it finally got collected!   Posted from Sheffieldforum.co.uk App for Android Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
ll49 Â Â 10 #19 Posted October 17, 2014 I know the owner and his wife but it didn't seem to make the slightest difference....until they wanted their money, because they didn't drop off when they said they would therefore when they did eventually get around to it nobody was in to pay for the skip. Â It was amazing how quick and eager they were to collect their money though - shame their approach isn't the same to collecting their skips when customers ask them to do so!!

fabgirl   10 #20 Posted October 18, 2014 I had lots of issues with the said skip company. I arranged delivery for a specific date the skip didn't arrive until 2 weeks later, I only kept on at them because I had paid in full for it. We filled it up promptly and asked for collection the next day, it took 4 weeks after daily ignored phonecalls. never again will I use them Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
tzijlstra   11 #21 Posted October 18, 2014 We learnt the hard way that you shouldn't pay in full for any tradesmen unless you are happy with their service/end-product. A lesson well remembered by all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
juliecocking   10 #22 Posted October 28, 2014 I have just used a new skip hire in sheffield 9 they were very good it was a mini skip so it went on my drive. They took as soon as I phoned to say it was full. Can recommend  ---------- Post added 28-10-2014 at 18:03 ----------  Sorry they call them S9 skips Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
vikinruby   10 #23 Posted October 31, 2014 I am becoming really frustrating at my skip not been collected It should have been collected a week ago and when I ring them up they just say it's on the collection list but can't say when. Does anyone else have this problem? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
jamiemini   10 #24 Posted October 31, 2014 We had the same problem with YWC. Absolutely appalling! Called them after having the skip 2 days for it collecting was still sat there 6 was later then wouldn't answer calls so I left a voice mail saying if it wasn't moved the following day I'll be contacting environmental health. Funnily enough it vanished! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
