Overview

AI-generated overview

Provides indicative UK skip hire prices by town, council permit rules, and skip size recommendations.

What you can do
This remote MCP server exposes UK skip hire information to an assistant. According to its registry description, it covers indicative skip hire prices by town, council skip permit rules, and skip size recommendations. No individual tools are listed in the manifest, so the exact operations are not documented here.
When to use it
Useful when someone is planning a UK building, renovation, or clearance job and wants a quick sense of skip prices in a given town, whether a council permit is likely to be needed, and which skip size might suit the waste involved.
Requirements
It is a remote streamable HTTP endpoint at the provider's site, so network access is needed. The manifest declares no packages, no authentication, no environment variables, and no headers, so no account or key is stated as required.
Before you install
Prices are described as indicative, so they are not quotes and should be confirmed with a supplier before any decision. The manifest declares no authentication and no credentials, and no write, payment, or data-sharing behaviour is described; treat any figures as guidance only.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Rent-a-Skip UK skip hire in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/uk.co.rent-a-skip%2Frent-a-skip/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows
