Skip Hire In Braintree
Skip hire across Braintree and the surrounding area
Clearaway delivers skips across Braintree town, Bocking, Black Notley, Great Notley, Cressing and Felsted. We carry the full 2 yard to 40 yard range plus the locked enclosed skips, which most local competitors do not. Skips are tipped into our own Environment Agency permitted recycling centre, so the waste you book in is tracked and sorted by a local firm rather than handed off to a third party. We also cover the nearby Essex towns of skip hire Witham, skip hire Kelvedon, skip hire Maldon. Read more about our wider coverage across south Essex.
Same-day skip hire in Braintree
Braintree sits at the meeting point of the A120, A131 and A12, which makes it one of the easier Essex towns to reach quickly. Most CM7 orders booked before late morning go out the same day. The round covers the town centre, the trading estates around Springwood Drive and Pods Lane, and out into the surrounding villages. If you are on a tight builder deadline, ring the office and we will tell you straight away whether we can hit it.
The Why
Why Choose Us
Four things that set us apart from most other Braintree skip hire companies.
Same day skip hire across CM7
Most orders booked before late morning go out the same day. We will be honest on the call if the round is full.
Environment Agency licensed and BSI certified
We are an Environment Agency Upper Tier Waste Carrier and BSI certified, with our own Archers Fields recycling facility behind every skip we run. That removes the duty of care risk that sits with the customer if your contractor uses an unlicensed operator.
Family-run Essex firm with two decades behind us
We are a real Essex family business with more than 20 years of local skip hire and waste management, not a national operator routing through a depot in another county.
Real customer service from a real Essex office
The office line goes through to the same yard that loaded the lorry. If something goes wrong on a delivery, you talk to a person who can fix it.
The How
How We Can Help
Skip hire is the headline service, but the wider Clearaway range covers most waste management needs in Braintree.
Domestic and commercial skip hire
Our skip hire covers everything from a small DIY clearance through to a longer construction project, with drop-door skips for easier loading where useful.
Locked enclosed skips
Our enclosed (lockable) skip range has a locking lid, which stops uninvited waste turning up overnight and bumping up your weight charge.
Commercial skip hire and trade waste
Commercial skip hire and trade waste collection on planned collection rotas, so the skip or the bin never sits idle on your yard for more than a day or two.
Wait and load service
For Braintree streets too tight or restricted for an overnight skip, our wait and load service brings the skip, sits with it for an agreed window while you load, then takes it away. No road permit needed.
Skip Hire In Braintree
Choose Clearaway for skip hire in Braintree
There is plenty of skip hire competition in CM7. The reasons our customers tend to come back: we are a real Essex family firm, our drivers know the streets, we are EA licensed Upper Tier Waste Carriers and BSI certified, and the waste from your skip goes to our own Archers Fields recycling facility rather than being passed on. If something goes wrong, you can call our office and speak to the same yard that loaded the lorry.

Roll on roll off versus traditional skip in Braintree
When a RoRo makes more sense
If you are running a long Braintree project (a barn conversion in Felsted, a unit refit on the Springwood industrial estate, a longer commercial strip out) the swap-and-collect maths often favours a roll on roll off rather than three or four 12 yard skips back to back. A 20 yard or 30 yard RoRo will sit on site for as long as you need it, with planned swaps.
When a traditional 12 yard or 16 yard is the right call
The catch with a RoRo is that the lorry needs a wider turning circle and clear vertical space (no overhead cables). For domestic drives in CM7 it usually does not work. Our team can run the numbers either way before you commit.
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.

Skip permits in Braintree
Permits not needed on private drives or yards
Permits are not needed if the skip stays on your driveway or your unit yard.
Road permits via Braintree District Council
Braintree District Council issue road permits for any skip placed on the public highway. We apply for the road permit on your behalf and fit the regulation lights and reflective panels. Permits typically take a few working days, so book ahead for jobs with a fixed start date.

If your build is on a roadside, near a footpath or on a busy industrial estate, our enclosed skip range stops uninvited waste turning up overnight.
Sizes available
We carry 8, 10, 12 and 16 yard enclosed skips, which is unusual for an Essex operator at this size.
