Skip Hire in Colchester
Skip Hire Across Colchester and Manningtree
Colchester is Britain’s oldest recorded town, and in 2022 it formally became a city. From the Roman walls around the town centre to new housing on its edges, building and renovation work goes on all year, and most of it produces more waste than a car boot or a few bin bags can manage.
Clearaway covers the CO1 postcode area, which takes in Colchester town centre and the surrounding neighbourhoods, and CO11, which covers Manningtree, Mistley and Lawford a few miles to the east on the Stour estuary. Both areas sit in our Area 4 pricing band, with our full price guide showing exactly what each skip size costs from.
Whether you are clearing a garden in a CO1 terrace, stripping out a kitchen near the town centre, or tackling a renovation in Manningtree, we deliver the same day wherever possible and collect again once you are done. For heavier loads of soil, hardcore or rubble that need loading straight onto a lorry rather than into a skip, our grab hire service may suit the job better; see our skip vs grab hire comparison for the difference.
Choose your Skip
Select the perfect skip size for your needs. Whether you're clearing out a small room or renovating an entire house, we have a range of skip sizes to accommodate your waste.

Sit back and relax! Your skip will be delivered to your specified location on the scheduled date. Ready to fill with your waste, making your cleanup project smooth and efficient.
Skip Hire in Colchester
Choose Clearaway in Colchester
Clearaway has over 20 years of experience in waste management and a 4.9-star rating from 688 Google reviews. We are BSI certified and Environment Agency approved, so you can book with confidence whether you are a Colchester homeowner clearing a loft or a contractor working on a city centre site.
We also serve the towns around Colchester, including skip hire in Tiptree and Kelvedon, so if your project spans more than one address we can usually help with both.
If you are taking waste to the tip yourself rather than booking a skip, Colchester’s household recycling centre on Shrub End Road is run by Essex County Council, not the city council, and you need to book a free slot before you go unless you are a Blue Badge holder, pedestrian or cyclist. See the Colchester Recycling Centre page on Love Essex for current opening hours and how to book, or call us and we will come to you with a skip instead.
Contact us today on 01268 520166 or book online to arrange skip hire in Colchester, CO11 and the surrounding area.
