A page or two back in this thread there are recommendations for skip hire companies in MK, plus I think man with a van people (although not sure if they would do the rubbish collection part but it may be worth asking).Can somebody recommend the cheapest Skip Hire place or man in a van willing to take away a garage load of rubbish from Bradwell Village...

Hi,
My husband needs to go to Heathrow airport next week. He won't have the car as I need it.
Can somebody tell the best way to go there? Taxi or train? Any recommendations?
Many thx

A big up for MK Council for this one.
As you know, I was looking for a skip earlier in the thread. I had a new kitchen put in and had the carcasses, plenty of wood and some electrical goods to get rid of.
I found the details on the MKWeb site here.
Called up last Monday to arrange a collection. For £40 (per half hour visit) they told me that they'd collect and remove all of the items from my kitchen. All I had to do was to leave the items on the boundary of my property.
I was offered the next non-refuse-collection day if I wanted it, but I scheduled it for today instead.
Popped all my stuff on my driveway yesterday and hoped that they would arrive - got home to a completely empty drive with no mess left behind.
Can only recommend... it would've cost me a lot more for a man & van, and certainly a hefty lump for a skip. I know that the items have been properly disposed of and I haven't had to cart anything to the tip myself. A fantastic service :T0 -
