Skip left on my property

Surely it depends if the skip has been hired.
If no payment has been made, then the builders are at fault for not arranging to dispose of controlled waste correctly, especially if it comes from a number of jobs.
If payment has been made, then the skip company are in probably in breach of the regulations covering their business, so could face having their licence revoked for a continued offence.
This is why it's important for he council to pin both of them down over what's happening. Ultimately, I suspect the skip company have most to lose here.
That would depend on the business to business contract they have in place. Until you know that together with what's stated on the builders waste carrying certificate it's far from a clear case of fly tipping.0 -
Wouldn't hold out too much hope of getting them done for flytipping.
I hope this isn't the OP!

I was thinking. Could you drop them an email or give them a call asking what it will take to get the skip removed? Save the email or record the call and when they demand money, bring it to the police accusing them of ransom.0

I think it is probably classed as extortion rather than ransom.0 -

An empty skip is easily dragged. Might take two people but that's often how they get the skip into position when it's left."If you think it's expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur." -- Red Adair0
