Accessibility Statement for Skip Hire Kensington Services

Skip Hire Kensington is committed to making our services and online information accessible to everyone, including people with disabilities. This accessibility statement describes the measures we take to support accessible skip hire in Kensington and how we align our digital services and operational processes with recognised standards. We proactively aim to ensure that booking skips, requesting deliveries, and accessing policy information are usable by as many people as possible.

We follow the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1 at the AA level as our baseline. That includes attention to text size and contrast, predictable navigation, and compatibility with assistive technologies. Our approach to accessibility in Kensington skip hire combines best-practice technical measures with staff training so our physical and digital services work together to serve customers with diverse needs.

As part of our effort to deliver inclusive skip hire in the Kensington area, we test our public pages and booking flows with common screen readers and keyboard-only navigation. We continuously review markup semantics, landmarks, headings and ARIA usage to improve the reading order and interaction model for those using magnification tools, voice output, or alternative input methods.

How we support users with assistive tools

Our site and customer touchpoints are developed with compatibility in mind. Support features include descriptive headings, clear link text, and forms designed for keyboard navigation and screen-reader users. We also validate colour contrast, avoid content that flashes, and provide text alternatives for non-text content where appropriate to aid understanding for everyone using our Kensington skip hire services.

Key accessibility features we maintain include:

• WCAG 2.1 AA conformance checks and ongoing remediation
• Full screen-reader support for essential booking and account pages
• Complete keyboard navigation for primary interactions and checkout flows
• Logical heading structure and concise, meaningful link text
• High contrast options and clear focus indicators for interactive elements

We describe elements using plain language and provide alternatives to visual controls so that customers requesting skips in Kensington can complete tasks without relying solely on visual cues.

Operationally, our teams receive guidance on supporting customers with accessibility needs during delivery and collection. When providing on-site information or guidance about skip placement we endeavour to offer clear, verbal explanations and, where helpful, paper or digital copies in accessible formats. Our drivers and coordinators are briefed to assist responsibly and respectfully while respecting individual preferences.

To report an accessibility issue or request a reasonable adjustment for a booking, please use our website’s accessibility request feature or the contact form available on the site. We do not publish direct contact details in this statement, but we will respond to accessibility requests in an appropriate timeframe and work with you to find a practical solution that meets your needs when using Kensington skip hire services.

We regularly review and update accessibility practices and technology to improve the experience of customers seeking skip hire in Kensington and surrounding areas. If you find a barrier, please tell us the page or service you were using, the assistive technology or browser you used, and the issue encountered. We aim to prioritise and resolve accessibility barriers and to document improvements, ensuring an inclusive service for everyone.
