They are constructed of metal and are delivered, collected, emptied and then returned (or sent to a new waste producer) via a dedicated [[Skip Lorry]] or [[Hooklift Lorry]] depending on the size of the [[Skip]]. This type of skip is distinct from the [[REL Skip]] and the [[FEL Skip]] which are separately listed on WikiWaste. | ||

An alternative configuration is for the compactor to be part of the skip construction to make it fully portable. | ||
