What our customers say about working with McKinstry
Skip hire commercial customers
We would highly recommend McKinstry Skip Hire as they are consistently reliable, with prompt deliveries and collections that keep our projects running smoothly. The team are professional and are always willing to accommodate our changing schedules. Working with McKinstry takes the stress out of managing construction site waste.
Frank McGuigan, Buyer, PK Murphy Construction Ltd
We’ve been working with McKinstry Skip Hire for years, and they always go the extra mile to make things easier on site for us. Their team understands the realities of our demolition projects and quite often we contact them with last minute requests and they do their best to accommodate us every time. Knowing that we can trust them to dispose of waste responsibly gives me great peace of mind.
Eamonn McCormack, Level Demolition Ltd
Skip hire commercial customers
Highly recommend these people. Very pleasant and helpful staff, very good price and excellent service. They even retrieved items which went in skip by mistake.
P Webb Lurgan
Would highly recommend - top class and very efficient service and great, friendly drivers!
Paul Madden
Used them twice now, and they’re great. I thought we were going to have an issue because they gave us a “free” weekend when we absolutely needed the skip picked up on day 7. But they came to the rescue, grabbing it before the end of business on the right day. Huge relief! Skips are always in reasonable shape, well placed on drop off, and swiftly out of the way on pick up. Very well done.
Bill Ricardi
We have been hiring skips for years, tried just about every skip hire company in the country (sad but true) and I must say McKinstry are the best value and have the best customer service. Call to get your skip collected and replaced with a new one and it is pretty much next day.
Craig Lennox
This is my first time using McKinstry, as we usually use another skip hire company, but I’ll now be using these guys in future. They are better value and so so helpful. I rang to ask could I pay a little bit extra as I didn’t think I would have the skip filled on time (due to a back injury) and the lady on the phone was so lovely, and told me not to worry, and just to call when the skip was ready, no extra charge. There are not many businesses out there would do that these days. I’m a happy customer, so will use again and would recommend to others.
B MacDonald
I’ve ordered a few skips off McKinstry over the past few weeks, and the service has been top class. The phone always gets answered, skips are delivered and picked up on time, replacement skips delivered on the day. Very reasonably priced as well, I’ll only be using them going forward.
