Show the last part of the approach
Photograph gateways, surfaces and turning space rather than only the area where you want the skip. Tell the provider if the access also serves another property.
Keep excavation separate from light waste
Soil and broken paving can dominate the weight of a garden job. Describe the likely quantities and confirm whether other materials can be added to the same container.
