When Mr Robert Dalziell and his wife first hired a skip from G. Farwell Ltd., John Major was Prime Minister and Britpop was at its height. Thirty-five years on, and they are still loyal customers, hiring skips for domestic use at their New Forest home.
In a recent letter, Mr. Dalziell took the time to thank the company for what he described as “outstanding service”. While there have been many changes to the team over the decades, he praised their consistent courtesy, efficiency, and helpful attitude. “Nothing is ever too much trouble,” he wrote, adding that what really stood out was the “friendliness shown by all.”
It’s this kind of feedback that reminds us why we do what we do. As a long-standing family business, Farwells has built its reputation on reliability, ease of service, and genuine care for its customers, whether they’re hiring a single skip, buying aggregates or hiring a fleet of plant machinery.
Simple, flexible, dependable skip hire
Farwell’s skip hire service is exactly what it should be: simple, flexible, and dependable. Whether you’re clearing out the loft, renovating a house, managing a building site or running a business, there’s a skip for the job — from compact 2-yard minis to massive 35-yard roll-on/roll-off containers.
Skips can be delivered and collected at times that suit you, even on the same day if available. We offer a wait and load service, and the team can even sort permits if the skip needs to be placed on the road. Our service is hassle-free, with clear advice and support every step of the way.
Who it’s for
We supply both private and commercial skips to:
- Builders and trades
- Homeowners tackling DIY or garden projects
- People clearing out after a move or bereavement
- Businesses managing office or shop refits
- Contractors on new builds or refurbishments
More than just a skip
At Farwell, it’s not just about dropping off a skip. It’s about being helpful, turning up on time, and treating every customer with respect. That’s what makes people come back, year after year.
From the staff that answer the phones to the delivery drivers, everyone genuinely cares. That kind of consistency, over 35 years, is rare. We’re incredibly proud and thankful to Mr. Dalziell for taking the time to share his gratitude.
