Ro Ro Skip Hire in Gillingham, Dorset
The Waste Group provides Ro Ro skip hire across Gillingham in north Dorset and the surrounding SP8 postcode area, serving construction sites, commercial premises, demolition contractors and housebuilders throughout the town and its rural catchment along the Wiltshire and Somerset borders.
Gillingham is north Dorset’s fastest growing town, with significant residential development programmes underway across the Newbury, Peacemarsh and Lodden Lakes areas. The town has seen considerable expansion in recent years driven by major housebuilding alongside the River Stour corridor, with consistent commercial and industrial activity along the Brickfields Business Park and the wider SP8 postcode area. The surrounding villages including Mere, Zeals, Bourton, Silton and the Wiltshire border settlements regularly require large-volume waste removal for agricultural projects, barn conversions and rural development work.
The Waste Group owns and operates its own vehicles and employs its own drivers directly — no brokers, no subcontracting, no third parties. When you book with us, you deal with us from first call to final collection. We have been operating across north Dorset and the surrounding border counties since 2007.
Ro Ro skips are priced on a transport and tonnage basis — a delivery and collection charge plus a cost per tonne of waste loaded, subject to a minimum chargeable weight. Call 01305 819819 for a project-specific quote.
