Skip Hire
We provide eco-friendly skip hire services across Sussex and London with various skip sizes for domestic and commercial use. Our process ensures maximum recycling of collected waste through our Energy Recovery Facility. Clients benefit from competitive pricing and responsible waste disposal solutions that align with our environmental commitments.
Demolition Services
Our demolition services cover projects from small house demolitions to large industrial sites across southern England. We prioritise material reuse and recycling through our integrated waste management systems. The team uses modern equipment and techniques to ensure safe, efficient site clearance while minimising environmental impact through reduced landfill usage.
Energy Recovery
Our Energy Recovery Facility converts non-recyclable waste into green electricity using advanced biomass technology. This process generates up to 5MW of renewable energy annually for the national grid. We achieve this through a multi-stage system that maximises material recovery while maintaining strict emissions controls and environmental compliance standards.
Recycling Solutions
We offer comprehensive recycling solutions for construction, commercial, and domestic waste streams. Our facility processes materials to extract metals, plastics, and aggregates for industry reuse. The service includes detailed waste sorting and preparation for secondary markets, supporting circular economy principles through responsible material management.

We actively support local sports teams and charitable organisations as part of our community engagement programme. This includes sponsorship, facility access, and environmental education initiatives. Our approach combines business success with social responsibility to create lasting positive impacts in the communities we serve.

As Chairman of Goring Chase Residents Association we use Rabbit whenever we need a skip , really simple and easy to book online and pay with the Business card , skip arrives next day and is collect when we request it done which is very useful living on an estate with limited space.

I've used Rabbit repeatedly over the years. Always helpful at point of contact. Drivers skilled and friendly and they always leave the skip in situ far longer than originally stated. Really helpful for us "older and slower" customers. I've always called to let them know skip is ready and am given timescales for potential collections.

We've used Rabbit Skip Hire on numerous occasions & always found them to be reliable & efficient. Although they say a fortnight we've usually kept them for longer than that & they've never contacted us to enquire when we'll be finished with the skip. The last skip we had, I phoned for them to collect it & was told it would probably be a couple of days but less than an hour later it was collected. We have on occasions used a different company but have always regretted it & gone back to Rabbit the next time.

We've had several skips from you. We're never pressured about how long we keep it for. The skip is always delivered & placed where we want it & it's always collected in a timely manor. We wouldn't go anywhere else for skips. They're easy to order with all the information needed about what you can & can't put in them.

Website has improved recently but can be a bit temperamental. Delivered when requested. Getting collected not so prompt driver said there were cars on driveway so couldnt collect. Next time needs to get out of his cab and use door bell and ask to move cars. Office staff always very helpful and amenable.

Ian @ Rabbit and Dowling Plant Hire have helped us out in the past and will continue to be our first choice for plant hire. Reliable and nothing is ever too much trouble - highly recommended.

I have tried repeatedly to book a skip on line but the site does not function. Having provided all the requested information, you reach a point where it asks you to place your booking, but it refuses to progress your order!

Fab service. The gentleman who delivered our skip had a hard job getting down our road and then our drive. He remained calm throughout, got out his vehicle to check width, walls etc and positioned the skip where we wanted it. To top it off my 2year old was watching and the driver waved and said hello. Highly recommend and the gentleman deserves a medal.

I've only met one employee from this company. But he was the most repulsive human being I have ever encountered.
