- Licensed skip hire across Stretford
- Waste paperwork provided with every job
- Free, no-obligation quotes
Straddling the A56 between Manchester city centre and Sale, Stretford takes in its own town centre, the Bridgewater Canal, the stadium district at Old Trafford and residential areas including Gorse Hill, Firswood, Lostock and the streets around Longford Park. Skips Manchester arranges skip hire, commercial bins and waste collections throughout Stretford.
With Trafford Park and the M60 on the doorstep, this is a heavily commercial part of Greater Manchester. Firms here regularly ask for scheduled trade bins and RORO containers, whereas householders tend to book ordinary skips for clear-outs and refits. We also cover Old Trafford, Gorse Hill and Firswood.
Every job is carried out by our licensed team, and we issue a waste transfer note per load, which keeps your Duty of Care records in order. Use the quote form on this page or ring 0333 121 1056.
Services available in Stretford
Services in Stretford and Old Trafford
Housing, retail and industry sit side by side in Stretford, so the services on offer are wide-ranging:
- 20 to 40 yard RORO containers for site and industrial waste
- Builders’ and domestic skips, 4 to 16 yards
- Commercial WEEE collections for warehouses and offices
- Regular commercial bins for cardboard, recycling, food and general waste
- Bulky waste and man-with-van collections for flats
When requesting a WEEE quote, please declare any equipment that contains batteries.
Because of POPs rules, upholstered armchairs and sofas from flat clear-outs have to be collected separately.
Trafford permits and access
Stretford falls within Trafford, which means a Trafford Council permit is required before a skip can stand on a public road. Applying is normally the skip provider’s job; allow a few working days, and expect the skip to carry lights and reflective markings.
Red-brick terraced streets in Old Trafford and Gorse Hill have little spare parking, whereas the semis around Lostock and Longford Park often come with driveways, where no permit is required. Industrial units generally have yard room for RORO containers and skips, though gate widths, height barriers and any site booking rules should be checked ahead of delivery.
Trafford Park and town-centre regeneration
Trafford Park, the huge industrial estate on Stretford’s northern edge, is home to distributors, manufacturers and trade counters, with more units along the A56. Under England’s Simpler Recycling rules, workplaces must keep dry recyclables and food waste separate from general waste, and plenty of these firms generate enough packaging and cardboard to warrant a RORO or regular collections.
The reshaping of Stretford town centre and new housing nearby create construction waste, muck away and grab hire work. Our licensed team issues a waste transfer note for every load, in line with the Duty of Care.

Questions about services in Stretford
Can’t see your question? Call 0333 121 1056 or send us a message.
Is a skip permit needed in Stretford?
Yes, whenever the skip stands on the road. Stretford is part of Trafford, so Trafford Council issues the permit and the skip provider usually makes the application. No permit is needed for a skip on a private car park, yard or driveway.
Can a unit in Trafford Park or along the A56 get a RORO container?
Yes, depending on availability and access. The lorry needs lots of room to manoeuvre, and the container has to sit on firm, level ground. Give us gate widths and details of any height restrictions and we will confirm. Our RORO guide has more.
Are Old Trafford, Gorse Hill and Firswood covered?
Yes. Subject to availability, we cover the neighbourhoods surrounding Stretford. They all sit within Trafford too, so Trafford Council issues any road permit. Please tell us about access limits at the time of booking.
Can old computers be collected from a Stretford office?
Yes. Laptops, computers, servers and other electrical items are collected as commercial WEEE, and for data-bearing equipment a certificate of destruction is available on request. Send a rough inventory and request a quote.
Skip hire and waste management reviews
All reviews →“Sam was great! Very helpful answered all of my questions about size of skip I would need and managed to get the skip delivered quickly for me. I would highly recommend! Thank you!”
“Responsive company and easy to deal with. Cheerful people who did the collection. Would reccommend!”
“I required disposal of some small hazardous items. I call around and enlisted the services of a two advertised waste removal business. It was a waste of time as neither could provide the required service. I can tell you what was not a wate of time; going to Waste Cloud. They were attentive and professional. They assessed the situation and the request and acted quickly, scheduling a pick up at site. Waste Cloud adheres to all Waste Regulations and produced the appropriate Waste Transfer Note for our records. They are now on the company books as a preferred supplier. If you want the job done to a high standard when others have or will fail; call on Waste Cloud to simply get the job done!”

Their experience with the management of waste was exceptional and they followed all policy and regulation around waste management which was of massive importance to a company like ours.
