Tonnes Away Ltd is proud to serve the Witney area with top-quality skip hire services and aggregate deliveries. Whether you're working on a home renovation, a landscaping project, or a large-scale construction site, we provide the essential services and materials you need to keep your project on track.
Our skip hire service is designed to make waste management as straightforward as possible. We offer a variety of skip sizes to accommodate projects of any scale, ensuring that you have the right solution for efficient waste disposal.
In addition to our skip hire services, Tonnes Away Ltd is a trusted supplier of high-quality aggregates in Witney. Whether you need materials for a driveway, garden path, or building foundation, we offer a wide selection of aggregates to meet your specific project requirements.
We offer five sizes, from a bag for small jobs up to a 12 yard skip for large clearances. All measurements are approximate.
Measure the space where the skip will sit before you book, and leave room for the lorry to lower it into place. Drives and front gardens in Witney vary a great deal, so the length and width matter as much as the size.
The right size depends on what is going in, not just how much. Light, bulky waste such as old furniture, carpet and packaging takes up room quickly. Soil, brick and broken concrete are heavy for their size, so a small skip filled with them can weigh more than a big one full of household rubbish.
As a rough guide:
If you are not sure, call us with a rough idea of the job and we will suggest a size.
Witney has an older stone centre with terraced streets where houses open almost straight onto the pavement, and newer homes on the edges of the town where drives can be short. In both cases there may be no sensible place for a skip.
A tonne bag needs far less room. It can sit in a small front garden, a yard or a corner of the drive, and once it is full we collect it. Bags suit garden waste, rubble from a small job, or soil from planting and patio work. They are also handy for having sand, gravel or top soil delivered in a manageable amount. Find out more on our tonne bags page.
For larger amounts of soil, rubble and general waste, a grab lorry can clear the lot in one visit. It pulls up nearby, reaches over walls and fences with its arm, and leaves as soon as it is loaded, so nothing is left outside your home. See our grab hire page for how it works.
If you are digging footings for an extension, lowering a garden or putting in a new drive, our muck away service takes the soil and spoil away. Waste is sorted and processed at licensed facilities, with recycling where possible.
Witney is a market town on the River Windrush in West Oxfordshire, about 12 miles west of Oxford, with the A40 running past it. For centuries the town was known for its woollen blankets, and the last of its blanket mills closed in 2002. The older centre is built largely of stone, while newer housing has grown up around its edges.
That mix shapes how we plan each job. Older houses in the centre often have little or no space at the front, while newer homes tend to have drives that make delivery simple. Witney is one of the main towns we cover from our base in Chipping Norton, along with the Cotswolds and surrounding areas.
Hire periods are flexible, short or long term. You can keep a skip for a few days for a quick clear-out, or for longer if the work runs over several weeks. Tell us how long you expect the job to take when you book, and let us know if it changes.
As a rough guide, a bathroom refit usually fits in a 4 or 6 yard skip. A kitchen refit, with old units, worktops and tiles, often needs a 6 or 8 yard skip. If walls or floors are coming out as well, go up a size.
Yes. We deliver gravel, sand, crushed stone and other aggregates to Witney, loose or in bulk, and we can bring top soil and crushed concrete too. Our aggregates page lists what we supply.
For a small clear-out of cuttings, old pots and a little soil, a tonne bag is often enough and takes up much less room. If the job includes an old shed, fencing or a lot of turf, a 4 yard skip gives you more space to work with.
