Pricing
Ward Recycling operates a very simple price structure. All prices are quoted based on the following factors:
- Size of skip required. The size of the skip required affects the amount of waste that needs to be recycled/managed. The more waste – the higher the cost.
- Location of site. We price the hire using a post code system enabling us offer the most competative price.
- Type of waste. Certain types of waste require more specialised, and therefore more expensive, management.
- Length of hire. The longer you need the skip, the more it will cost. However, our major cost is for the first day of hire: the sooner you fill it, the cheaper it will be! Ward recycling is committed to offering the lowest prices amongst all our competitors for any given skip.
