Cyclone Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Used them in the past - never had a problem. It doesn't sound like the problem is for their customers though, so that's hardly surprising. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iansheff Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 This skip company took exception to someone not paying their bill. https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/moment-angry-skip-boss-empties-12035088 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paula4sheff Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 I have 30-40 skips a year from Arthurs. Never a problem. A good professional company in my opinion. That said, there will always be moaning idiots around with nothing else to do but complain about nothing. 'Moaning idiots' who can't get their car out of their own driveway due to a skip being placed in front of it you mean? Fine for those, like you, who are ordering those skips. Not so fine for others by the sounds of things. Still - doesn't matter does it? Best to call them 'idiots'. Pull up the ladder jack! I'm OK!

Waldo Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 30 or 40 skips per year they are always going to be polite to you! However there is two sides to every story There are always some idiots who only care about one side of the story... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mickey finn Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 i have always found them to be helpful and polite , maybe its just your attitude??? Why is the teacher letting you use your mobile ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paula4sheff Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Why is the teacher letting you use your mobile ? "I'd like to give you some money to hire a skip" "Certainly! A pleasure to meet you! How can we help?" OR "Excuse me, that skip you delivered for the man over the road appears to be blocking my car in it's driveway, and I really need to get it out" "<removed> off" I think it might depend on what side of the conversation you're on by the sounds of things!

mickey finn Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 Call up and without identifying yourself just tell them the skip is ready to collect. To be fair, I once had to get the police involved to get their skip moved from outside my drive. It was Friday evening, they claimed they had no-one available to move it until Monday. I called the non emergency police number and explained and an hour later a skip lorry showed up and took the skip away. ^This^ take some pics, call the police, in fact complain to anyone that will listen, driving big vehicles sometimes causes changes to a persons level of arrogance, dont let them get away with it. ---------- Post added 16-02-2018 at 12:06 ---------- "I'd like to give you some money to hire a skip" "Certainly!
