What the Tool Does (And What It Doesn't)
This isn't a marketing platform. It isn't a CRM. It's a tool that does exactly one thing: get a customer to leave a Google review after you've finished a hire. Below is what's inside.
SMS review requests
Sent the moment you finish a hire. SMS gets a 90%+ open rate within minutes.
Sentiment gate
Unhappy customers give private feedback. Only happy ones go to Google.
Automatic follow-up nudge
If a customer doesn't respond to the first request, one polite reminder goes out a few days later. Then it stops — no nagging.
Private feedback inbox
Every low rating that didn't go to Google lands in your dashboard with its comment, so you can call the customer back and fix the issue.
Conversion stats
See how many requests you've sent, how many customers clicked through, and how many actually posted a review.
Bulk import past customers
Upload a CSV of recent customers and send a one-off request to all of them — a fast way to bank a wave of reviews.
What Using the Tool Actually Looks Like for a Skip Hire Company
Five real scenarios from a typical week — a domestic skip hire, a commercial skip hire, a follow-up on an older mini skip. Same three taps every time.
domestic skip hire
A customer who's just had a domestic skip hire from you is the easiest review you'll ever ask for — when the moment is right. The system catches that moment.
commercial skip hire
A customer who's just had a commercial skip hire from you is the easiest review you'll ever ask for — when the moment is right. The system catches that moment.
mini skip
A customer who's just had a mini skip from you is the easiest review you'll ever ask for — when the moment is right. The system catches that moment.
grab lorry hire
A customer who's just had a grab lorry hire from you is the easiest review you'll ever ask for — when the moment is right. The system catches that moment.
Why Most Skip Hire Don't Use a Review Tool — Yet
The tools have been around for years. So why have most skip hire business owners never tried one? It usually comes down to the four objections below — all of which fall apart on closer look.
Skip hire is a commodity — customers compare prices only
Delivery and collection are your only touchpoints
Customers forget about the skip once it's collected
You compete with national waste companies
Top-ranking skip hire companies typically have 30-60 Google reviews.
The Tool, From Tap to Review
Step one: open the app. Step two: enter the customer. Step three: send. The SMS goes out, the review form opens for them, and your Google profile gets one richer. That's the whole product.
Finish a hire
Wrap up the work the same way you always have. Nothing changes in how you operate.
Add the customer
Drop their name and mobile into the app — fifteen seconds, from your phone.
Reviews land
Happy customers post directly to Google. Unhappy ones give you private feedback first.

Tool FAQs
How quickly can I send my first request?+
Under five minutes from signup. Connect your Google profile, add your first customer, hit send. You'll often see the review appear on your profile that same day.
Does the tool send by SMS or email?+
SMS only. Email gets a fraction of the open rate and a much lower review conversion, so the tool is built around what actually works for a skip hire company: a single polite text message to a UK mobile.
What happens if a customer doesn't reply?+
The tool sends one polite reminder after 3 days. After that, no more — we don't believe in nagging your customers on your behalf.
Can I bulk import old customers?+
Yes — upload a CSV, the tool deduplicates and validates phone numbers, and you can send a one-off request to everyone you've worked for in the last 6-12 months.
The simplest review tool a skip hire company can pick up.
No training, no onboarding, no integrations to set up. Sign up, add your first customer, hit send. The next review is on its way.
