Skip hire in Lancashire is hard to talk about without Preston, because the city sits in the middle of the county and the firms on this page reach well beyond it. 31 businesses are covered here, from small skip yards to man and van clearance crews, scrap and metal recyclers, and waste transfer sites. Domestic Skip Hire Preston, H S Dransfield Skip Hire and Skip Hire Preston all work in the city itself, and they cover the range from mini skips for a garage clear out to bigger skips for building sites.

Most of the skip firms here lean towards mixed domestic and trade work. Domestic Skip Hire Preston supplies householders, businesses and tradesmen in Preston, Goosnargh, Walton-le-Dale and Higher Walton, with 2 yard mini skips and 4 yard midi skips for hardcore, soil and garage clearances. H S Dransfield Skip Hire is a family run firm with over 20 years in the trade, serving Preston, Kirkham, Garstang and Longridge, with sizes from a 4 yard skip up to roll-on roll-off units of 40 yard.
