We are North West Recycling (formerly Brampton Skip Hire), Cumbria’s largest and most sustainable private skip hire and waste management firm, servicing everyone from domestic householders needing a small skip for a DIY project to large housebuilders, business parks and local authorities with flexible and cost-effective trade waste bins and large Roll On Roll Off waste container collections.
Partnering other waste management companies, we also offer a purpose-built waste transfer station and disposal facility, including our very own Materials Recycling Facility and the production of Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF).
All of this means that your skip waste is processed on site, reducing transport costs and represents a much greener and more cost-effective way to deal with the regions waste, so that we can reduce Co2 emissions and divert waste from landfill.
Operating across the whole of West Cumbria, including Whitehaven, Workington, Cockermouth, Seascale, Egremont, Millom, Silloth and Wigton, as well as over to Keswick, Carlisle and Penrith, we have over 2,500 skips available for hire and over 25 skips wagons currently on the roads of Cumbria.
In addition to providing our customers a fully integrated more sustainable waste processing solution, for every skip hire delivery and exchange we donate £1 to nominated local charities, through our charity support programme.
