Bag it up and put it out for the council collections, just spread it about a few piles once the bagman's been along and piled them together for pick up, a bit snide but we've done it. All our Green waste goes to a bio fuel processing plant, £20. per load, and they don't object to the odd fence panel in with it either, not ssure where you are but we use Blythe Valley, there must be some companies doing it by you, find out where the Tree surgeons take their waste, they always tend to have a few places up their sleeves.

a skip for what will amount to about 1 tonne of greenwaste is money down the drain.

I store my greenwaste in tonne bags until i get a load to go to the waste site, 7p a kilo over 750kg.
I know you have a prob with sat opening.
why not invest in a cage side trailer, and continually fill it up from each job. once its full, go to the waste site.

someone mentioned waste licence. just been informed that hedge cuttings/grass tree waste does not require a licence. Fencing and rubble does.
proving you only carry the former is slightly more tricky!
