Had a skip at work recently fired between a few of us, not much change from £300
Within 1 day thing was full of all the neighbours junk, thankfully have good cctv so went and suggested they remove it, after a day most of them bothered, but was still a load of building materials and personal junk, put footage into council (felt like a right nimby) who spent more than the 20 seconds that I did working out who was who, they found two persistent offenders in vans that they'd been trying to get for a while. No action against neighbours just two fake waste removal types.
In Glasgow they've just got rid of free bulk collection of waste (you had to book items like fridges and other dangerous items) from back lanes (Inc in council tax), to a ring and pay us and we'll think about removing it system.
Immediate massive increase in fly tipping all over city and just outside of it. Le sigh.

And going to the dump is an absolute shambles too, its like they wanted an increase in fly tipping. Usual from GCC

Seriously impressed that you managed to get the council to do something about this. A conspicuous CCTV camera trained on a skip seems like a good precaution, one to remember.

The most recent 8 yard skip (medium size for domestic builders) I hired was £245.
That is outside London hiring from a skip company I do regular business with so I would imagine that in London it would be more, also most people would have to pay for a parking suspension so they had somewhere to put it as well as hoarding round the skip to stop the neighbours filling the thing up.
