LOCAL SKIP HIRE · BRIGHTON & HOVE
Portslade is on the edge of Brighton and Hove, from the seafront and the Old Village up to Mile Oak. Its skip permits work differently to West Sussex, and we sort that out for you.

QUICK ANSWER
Yes. We deliver skips across Portslade, BN41, including Portslade-by-Sea, Portslade Old Village and Mile Oak. It is about 11 miles from our Worthing yard. Mixed waste skips start at £125 + VAT, and mattresses go in at no extra charge.
LOCAL KNOWLEDGE
Portslade is part of the City of Brighton and Hove, which matters for skips. A skip on the road here needs a licence from Brighton & Hove City Council, not West Sussex County Council like the rest of our area. Allow a little extra time for it.
Down near the seafront and Portslade-by-Sea there are Victorian terraces and flats with no front drives. Up the hill in Mile Oak the homes are mostly post-war semis and bungalows with drives, on some fairly steep roads.

ACCESS
If your skip has to go on the road, we apply for the Brighton & Hove skip licence for you. Parking is controlled on many streets near the seafront, so tell us the road when you book and we will check what applies.
In Mile Oak most drives take a 4-yard skip, but some are steep. Let us know if yours slopes, so we can place the skip somewhere safe.
LOCAL JOBS
House clearances and kitchen or bathroom refits are the jobs we are asked about most in Portslade. A 6-yard skip clears most of a two-bedroom house, mattresses included at no extra charge.
Garden makeovers are common up in Mile Oak, where the gardens are bigger. Keep garden waste separate, as it costs less than mixed waste.
PRICES
Portslade is charged at our standard prices. A Brighton & Hove road licence, if you need one, is extra. Extra days cost £5 each if agreed in advance. Soil is charged at the mixed waste price, and mattresses go in at no extra charge. Compare skip sizes.
