Hills RoRo bins
With sizes available between 20 and 40 yards, including lockable and enclosed options, our roll-on roll-off waste containers are built for the challenge of removing construction and demolition waste, as well as providing a large load collection and disposal service for distribution, warehousing businesses and high waste volume producers in the tourism industry. Our roll-on roll-off bins:
- Have fully opening rear doors
- An open-top options available
- Can be supplied with low-level sides for simple top-loading. (15 & 20 yard RoRo's).
- Compactors can be supplied. Ask us for more details.
Compactors
We can also supply static or portable compactors to compress your waste and maximise the amount we can collect. This can offer businesses a cost-effective solution, reducing the number of collections required for larger volume producers, such as manufacturing, industrial and retail businesses.
We can provide both one-off hire or arrange more regular contract arrangements. To find out more and to book your RoRo skip today get in touch.

Manage your paperwork online
On collection, we’ll provide you with a waste transfer note via email. Account customers can also sign up for our online Customer Portal, where you’ll have access to your collections (historic and future), copies of invoices and copies of Waste Transfer Notes. This is particularly useful for businesses that use our services regularly.

Lockable containers
Our enclosed containers ensure waste is stored safely and can help to avoid unwanted fly-tipping.
They also help keep waste dry, avoiding chemical reactions in materials such as plasterboard, and additional charges from increased weight due to water absorption.

Wait-and-load service available
We offer a wait-and-load service option for urban sites without suitable room to leave a skip. This service has up to 15 minutes of free service time included. Additional wait time will incur an extra cost.

Estimated Charges
Our RoRo pricing is based on 2 factors:
Base Price: This is based on the type of waste you require collected and the size of the container.
Additional tonnage: If you exceed the agreed tonnage, you will incur excess overweight charges in addition to the agreed tonnage calculated at the time of ordering.

What is the difference between a regular skip and a RoRo?
Standard skips are smaller waste containers designed to be lifted onto a platform or vehicle by hydraulic lifting arms. They’re ideal for transporting waste from small-scale construction and commercial projects. RoRos are larger than skips, designed to move high volumes or bulky waste, for example, from industrial construction and demolition sites. Unlike a typical skip, roll-on roll-offs are fitted with wheels to help them roll on and roll off a flatbed truck. It also makes them easier to manoeuvre when full.
-
How does our compaction service work?
We can supply static and portable compactors, depending on requirements. Bulky waste is compressed, and that waste can then be put into the container to maximise available space. Certain compactors can be fixed to containers. Depending on the size of hooklift you need, we can recommend the appropriate compactor. Contact us for more information.

20yd RoRo vs 40yd RoRo: which size do I need?
The size of RoRo you need depends on how much waste you need to dispose of. As a guide, we have indicated the number of black bags each container can hold in the table above.
It might seem counterintuitive, but if you’re disposing of heavy materials, you should choose a smaller container like our 20-yard RoRo so it falls within road weight limits. Larger RoRos, like the 40-yard, are better suited to lighter, high-volume, bulky waste.
For more information, see our chart above.
