By placing an Order through this Website, you are agreeing to the following terms and conditions. These terms and conditions do not in any way affect your statutory rights when you Order as a consumer.

In these terms and conditions "you", "your" and "yourself" refers to the Customer and "we", "our" and "us" refers to Yellowskips.com Ltd, Company No: 6911374 Broker of Controlled Waste Registration No. CB/UE5837AN with registered offices at Premier House, 209-211 Walsall Road, Perry Barr, Birmingham, B42 1BS.

We will provide you with an online market place to enable you to access hire charges for the supply of various Containers by suppliers. When you place an Order we will arrange, on your behalf, the hire of the Container between yourself and the Service Provider. However, we do not assume any responsibility or liability for the acts or omissions, of any Service Provider.

These terms and conditions shall apply to:

1) The hire of Container between you and the Service Provider, and
2) The arranging of such hire through us.

These terms and conditions shall not be overridden or amended by any terms and conditions of the Customer or the Service Provider.

1.1      When you submit your Order to us through this Website you are consenting to be bound by our terms and conditions contained in these Terms and Conditions and appearing elsewhere on the Website.

1.2      Your Order to us is an offer which may or may not be accepted but in any event neither we or a Service Provider will be bound by a contract with you until and unless, we have received from you all the payment details we require for the Container ordered by you, your Initial Fee to us has been authorised by your card issuer or we are otherwise happy with the payment situation and an Acceptance Email has been issued. Notwithstanding any Acceptance Email your Order will not be processed by the Service Provider unless the Price less the Initial Fee has been paid in full directly to the Service Provider or an alternative arrangement has been made with the Service Provider directly.

1.3      Where it is decided to accept your Order it will be accepted by an Acceptance Email confirming your details, provided you have supplied us with a correct e-mail address, which is most important. The Acceptance Email will provide an Order reference number for any future correspondence. All prices and charges will be calculated of those ruling at the time at which the Acceptance Email is sent to you. Prices and other charges including any applicable delivery charge are shown on our Website.

1.4      The Acceptance Email being sent to you means that the Service Provider concerned has agreed to supply to you the Container described on the Order.

1.5      For your Order to be processed and the Container delivered you must supply us with all the relevant details we request, including a Drop off Location, full delivery details, postcode and telephone number and email address. You are entirely responsible for the Drop off Location being in fact suitable for the placing and use of the Container.

1.6      At our or our Service Provider's discretion we or our Service Provider may from time to time, offer products at discounted prices. These offers are valid from the time that we or our Service Providers introduce them to the end date of the offer, subject to availability and they cannot be used for purchases before the offer introduction date or after the offer end date.

1.7      In the event that you have made a purchase and the price of a container type falls or is discounted due to a special offer; the price of the container type at the time you place your Order shall prevail. We are unable to offer special offer discounts for purchases that have already been made at other prices. We may change the terms of special offers, or withdraw them altogether, at any time and without prior notice. We also reserve the right to offer different personalised special offers and promotions and it will therefore only be possible for the Customer in receipt of the special offer to redeem the discount.

1.8      Offers and Containers displayed on our Website are always subject to availability that may change without notice.

1.9      The Service Provider is not our agent or subcontractor, our role is to facilitate your introduction to a Service Provider.

2.1      The Initial Fee is to be paid by you to us immediately on placing your Order.

2.2      Unless an alternative arrangement has been made with the Service Provider directly the balance of the Price is to be paid in full to the Service Provider no later than 48 hours before the requested delivery of the Container.

2.3      Payment of the Initial Fee may be made by any of the methods indicated on the payment page of our Website and will be debited when you submit your Order. Payment must be made in £s sterling.

2.4      Occasionally credit cards that are entered correctly and have sufficient funds are not validated because the card issuer is performing a random security check. In these cases, we will need to take payment over the phone. We will email or call you in these circumstances. If you receive a message to tell you that payment has not been validated, please contact our customer service team immediately at info@yellowskips.com to ensure your Order can be attended to. Please note that attendance by us will normally only take place during usual Working Hours.

2.5      Where an approved credit or debit card transaction has taken place and subsequent payment shortfall arises (e.g. in the case of unsuitable waste); we or the Service Provider may process the balance due for payment on the card you used for the Initial Fee. Similarly, we may process part payments at interim stages of the Contract.

2.6      The Customer will pay all monies outstanding on demand including interest on amounts overdue and will be liable for reasonable legal charges incurred by us or the Service Provider in the recovery of Container and/or any amounts due.

2.7      The Price stated on the Acceptance Email is for the duration of the hire of the Container and include Saturdays, Sundays and Public Holidays.

3.1      If you wish to make any changes to your Order please contact the Service Provider direct. The Service Provider cannot guarantee to accept changes made to your Order but the Service Provider's policy is to allow changes as long they are able to agree with you any consequent changes in price or otherwise. Any change to your Order may affect the price to be paid by you and the Service Provider's acceptance of your requested change will then be subject to any additional price or charge.

3.2      Where you do have a right to cancel your order under the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000 as amended you must give written notice of cancellation to the Service Provider.

The notice of cancellation should quote your unique order code and sent to the Service Provider's details specified in the Acceptance Email.

3.3      Where you do have the right to cancel you can cancel the Contract within a seven-day period which starts on the day after you receive the Acceptance Email.

3.4      If you cancel the Contract orally, you will need to confirm the oral cancellation in writing and send it to the Service Provider by one of the written means specified in the Acceptance Email.

3.5      The Service Provider reserves the right to cancel the contract where the Container you Order was listed at an incorrect price due to a typographical or administrative error.

3.6      Where you have placed an Order that requests delivery of the Container at a time prior to the expiry of the seven day period mentioned above your right to cancel under the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000 shall not apply.

3.7      If you choose to cancel the hire of Container where the right to cancel under the Consumer Protection (Distance Selling) Regulations 2000 does not apply the following charges will be levied:

More than 3 days' notice: 10% of total hire charge,
1 - 3 day's notice: 50% of total hire charge,
Less than 24 hours' notice: 100% of total hire charge

4.1      Our Service Providers will only make deliveries in the mainland of the United Kingdom.

4.2      Provided that there are no problems with your Order or availability of the Container type requested the aim of the service provider is to have the Container delivered on the date requested by you on the Order as stated on the Acceptance Email.

4.3      Unless agreed otherwise with the Service Provider the Container will be collected 5 days after delivery.

4.4      The Service Provider will only deliver the Container to the Drop off Location specified in your Order, if the location identified in the Order is apparently not suitable the Service Provider will not be able to leave it there.

4.5      (a) A Recipient signature will be required for deliveries.
4.5      (b) The Customer warrants that the Recipient signing for delivery has the authority of the Customer to do so on the Customer's behalf.

4.6      Should the Recipient be absent at the time of delivery or if the Drop off Location is not suitable, a failed delivery charge may be made by the Service Provider and you will need to arrange redelivery for the Container direct with the Service Provider.

4.7      Neither we nor the Service Provider accept any liability whatsoever for any delay in deliveries which has occurred due to any circumstances beyond our or the Service Provider's reasonable control.

4.8      Under normal circumstances, the Service Provider will try to ensure that your Container is delivered to the Drop off Location you provide. However, there are times when this is not possible due to problems with the address information or other difficulties. To alleviate such problems please:

• Ensure that the Drop off Location you provide is full and accurate, including the address and postal code where applicable,
• Give additional instructions to assist with difficult-to-find addresses,
• Keep us informed if you find that the Drop off Location or Recipient's availability changes prior to the Order being delivered.

Neither we or the Service Provider will be responsible for any Orders which are not delivered or other problems or consequences that arise due to incorrect or incomplete information being supplied by you or due to the absence of a Recipient authorised to sign by way of acknowledging receipt of the Container.

4.9      Where the Service Provider has to attempt re-delivery the Service Provider has the right to levy a redelivery charge at the Service Provider's standard rates.

4.10      The Price includes carriage and delivery. A maximum of 30 minutes attendance by the delivery vehicle at the Drop off Location specified by the Customer is included. The Customer will pay for further time at the Service Provider's standard rates.

5.1      The Service Provider reserves the right to provide a larger Container than specified in your Order at no additional charge provided that the substitute Container is no larger than is appropriate for the Drop off Location.

6.1      Neither we, nor any Service Provider that we use shall be liable for any failure or delay in performance where such failure or delay results from any circumstances outside our reasonable control, including, but not limited to, any fire, flood, explosion, accident, adverse weather conditions, traffic congestion, mechanical breakdown, obstruction of any private or public highway, riot, government act, act of war, terrorism, act of God, or from any industrial dispute or strike whatsoever.

7.1      To ensure that we can communicate effectively with both Customers and Recipients, it is very important that you provide accurate personal information. Please remember that we value your privacy and will only deal with private information in the way set out in our Privacy Policy, but of course we have to share it with the Service Provider.

Customer email address - we use this information for the purpose of order acceptance, informing you of the order status and in the event that we need to make substitutions,

Customer full name and address - we use this information for credit card validation and for direct mailing (if you have agreed to receipt of these mailings) and of course for delivery,

Recipient telephone number (and mobile number) - if different from the customer telephone number.

We and the Service Provider shall only use personal data received from you for the purpose of fulfilling our obligations under the Contract or as stated in our Privacy Policy.

8.1      Although the Service Provider does its best to ensure that this does not happen, on rare occasions, Containers that arrive at their destination may not be to the specification ordered. If you or the Recipient receive a Container that does not accord with the description in the Acceptance Email please contact the Service Provider immediately.

8.2      In order to resolve any complaints quickly, we request that you make any complaint within 48 hours of the date of delivery of the Container concerned.

16.6      You are to inform us if the Drop off Location is not located on private property so that the Service Provider may obtain the permissions and permits from the Highway Authority required by the Highway Act.

16.9      Subject always to clause 9.

17      You shall allow us and or the Service Provider access to the Container at all reasonable times for the purpose of replacement or repossession or inspection.

18.1      The following items shall not be placed in the Container:
