Efficient …would have been 5 stars but skip was placed with its edge on a neighbours drive rather than fully placed on ours

Possibly worst Serice I’ve received from
a company. Spoke with Lilly to put order in for a 8 yrs skip. Told her what I was putting in it so she “checked” this was ok and got it booked in. When lorry turned up to pick up they said it couldn’t be filled up due to the weight and only could fill up equivalent of. 6yrd skip. Due to the driver not picking up I had to pay an extra £100 for Lilly being incompetent at her job. I was then told I had to pay the extra £100 or they would leave the skip on my property. So now I’ve paid for a 8 yrd and only getting 6 yrd and paying an extra £100 for it. On the second pick up I waited around all day and late in the afternoon phoned up for an eta and after being “put on hold to check with the driver” was told in the hour. This company doesn’t own the skips and basically is a middle man subbing it to the actual companies. Because I didn’t believe them I rang the skip company directly and they said they were never picking it up that day and turned up 4 days later. Company is utter shambles.

From start to finish it was very professional regarding the staff and the process. They contacted you to explain when delivery would occur and text when it would be picked up. Would definitely recommend the company and would use it again.

A reassuring hand.

I had a small window of opportunity to organise a skip to be delivered at short notice to my late mother’s house.
Josh Grimes, working in the office, took my call and made sure everything I needed was taken care of. Some might say it was a simple process, perhaps, but I needed, in that moment, someone who would use their communication skills to convey an assurance that my needs would be met. They were. Thank you Josh.

Delivery was on time. Confirmation by the delivery driver it had been delivered.
I would thoroughly recommend this Company.

Service

I ordered several skips from AMA, with the last order placed on 28.03.25 and paid for at the same time. I had booked an exchange for 02.04.25, but they did not show up for the exchange. I contacted them on 03.04.25, and they promised to come the same day. When I followed up on 04.04.25, nothing happened. I contacted them again at 1:00 PM , and they began making excuses, stating that their truck had broken down, and they would be delayed. When I contacted them again at 4:00 PM, they suddenly claimed that I had not ordered anything or made any payment. After an hour of arguing, I was finally able to prove that I had paid. However, they now claim that they will only refund the, it's 5th may and still waiting. I have confirmation email from Elliott Allen on 4th April regarding refund payment.

Another issue is that from the first day of ordering, I requested a tax invoice Not Card transaction receipt. I have never received it. They told me the system was down. I have evidence in my emails requesting the invoice for VAT claims. Today, they mentioned that they would leave a message for management to sort it out. How is it possible for them to charge a customer without providing an invoice?

Great service

Great service, really good communication. Skip arrived on time and was collected when requested. Invoice emailed straightaway. Lovely business to deal with.

Terrible communication, no skip received.

Had a terrible experience booking skip. Skip apparently couldn't be delivered through no fault of our own however we were charged for a failed delivery. I had hassle them for 3 days before someone finally spoke to me to tell me what was going on with my skip and that it wouldn't be delivered. The level of communication I received was horrendous, and received no t&C's or booking reference. After hassling many more times I finally got through to a helpful and polite manager. But prior to that my entire experience was shocking including my contact with another manager.

Am surprised

So, the mother in law died. We had the funeral reception in the garden next to the church.
Ordered a skip, used it, requested it before gone before the 16th April 2025 due to the funeral. AMA say unable to pick up until the 18th March. I needed to put a huge tarp over the skip to try and hide it.... a 6 yard skip. The drive where the skip is, is part of our garden and where 60 people gathered after the burial.
24th April the skip is still here.

No indication as to when they are picking it up.

Only ever used this company, I've never not been impressed with them, the service and drivers have been exceptional - until the wife burst into tears over the skip still here on her mothers funeral. Must be at least 7 years now I've used AMA.

I was very disappointed as the skip should of been picked up on the 27th March & it wasnt.The 28th was my completion date, & removal day, wwhich i explained when i ordered the skip & your advisor assured me it would be collected the day before on 27 th March.We couldnt move any of our furniture as the skip was blocking the drive, My van was ordered for 8 am on the 28th, & after about 4 calls to you the skip finally arrived after lunchtime.I wasnt able to hand my keys in to the estate agents until 4.45 pm, it was disgusting, i will never use your skips again.Infact i should get some money refunded, which you haven't offered, you will not be getting my custom again i & i wont be recommending your company to any family & freinds. Apparently i heard after that this happens quite alot with your company. I was very disappointed .
