What a pain! You could order a skip, put the other skip in it, then have both taken away. I'm sure that would work.0

Fill it with water and use it as an outdoor swimming pool.0

Make use of the free skip. The company who provided it will collect it after a week or before when the error is realised. Skip hire is not that cheap, so I doubt it will be there long.
It's the landfill tax that's expensive. Doing what you suggest may lead to a demand for 150 notes or the contents emptied on the front garden.0 -

True. He can say what he likes but in my experience people in that line of business aren't to be messed with.
Remember it's on his drive outside his home.
If the skip company don't want to take the pass! bys waste, where do you think it's going?0 -
I think the councils can identify who owns the skip from the serial number of the skip so it would be worth giving them a ring to find out. I know that's how the council near me identified an old skip of ours (that we had scrapped years ago but someone decided to use it...).YNWA
