Cheap skips

With the BH coming up next weekend I've decided we're going to have a massive clearout.

I was going to put some stuff on Freecycle but don't want to keep clutter in the hope someone might want it, and then have to hope they turn up for it.

So, can anyone suggest the cheapest place to get a skip in the Oldham/Rochdale area.

Thanks

    Can't help with the skip, but you might save some money if you don't mind doing some extra exercise :D

    I've recently had a massive clearout of the garden after it had been neglected for a couple of years: loads of cuttings, branches, soil, rubble, concrete. It worked out a lot cheaper to hire a van for the day and do a few runs to the tip: about £50 for the van and diesel versus at least £150 for the skip. Even those hippobag things were pricey.
