Garden and green waste skips are collected separately from general mixed skips and taken to a composting or wood-recycling facility. Because the load stays clean, virtually all of it is diverted from landfill. A 3-yard midi skip handles the average garden clearance, roughly equivalent to a large estate car loaded six times over. If you are removing turf or topsoil in any volume, a 4-yard or 6-yard skip is more practical, though keep in mind that soil is heavy: a 6-yard skip filled entirely with wet soil will hit its weight limit before it is visually full. You can mix soil, turf, grass clippings, hedge cuttings, branches, bark, and plant material freely in the same skip provided no general waste goes in. Treated or painted timber must stay out of a green-waste load because it contaminates the composting stream. Plastic plant pots in small quantities are usually fine, but large volumes slow sorting and some processors refuse them, so bag them separately if you have many. Japanese knotweed cannot go in any standard skip; it is a controlled invasive species and requires specialist licensed disposal. For landscaping jobs that produce heavy soil and rubble alongside green waste, it is often worth ordering two smaller skips rather than mixing the materials into one large one. Clean soil loads are recycled as aggregate or fill, and mixed loads may be charged at a higher rate. We cover Faringdon and the surrounding 30-mile area and can advise on the right skip size when you book.
