Skip Hire Greenwich Accessibility Statement

This accessibility statement explains how we approach inclusive access for everyone using the services of Skip Hire Greenwich and related local skip hire in Greenwich offerings. It sets out our commitment to delivering an accessible experience for customers, contractors and visitors, whether they interact with us online, by phone, or in person. Our aim is to remove barriers and support equal access across all touchpoints.

We strive to meet the WCAG 2.1 AA standard across our web presence and digital booking interfaces. Where possible we align content, navigation and forms with recognized accessibility guidelines to provide consistent, perceivable, operable, understandable and robust experiences. These efforts include regular reviews, testing and updates to keep pace with evolving standards.

Our site and customer portals are built to support screen reader technologies and assistive devices used by people with visual, cognitive or motor impairments. We follow semantic markup practices, provide meaningful alt text for images, and ensure form fields are properly labeled to help users relying on spoken or braille output.

Keyboard navigation is a central part of our accessibility work. Users can navigate menus, booking widgets and interactive elements using the keyboard alone. We design focus states and tab order to be logical and visible, so that those who cannot use a mouse or touch screen can still find and complete actions.

We also pay attention to colour contrast, text size, and scalable layouts to support readability. Text can be resized without loss of content or functionality and interactive elements meet minimum contrast ratios to comply with AA criteria. Where possible we provide alternative formats for important information.

Accessibility testing includes automated checks and manual audits with assistive technology. We perform routine checks of our content and interfaces for the Greenwich skip hire services to identify and resolve issues. Continuous improvement is part of our approach: when problems are found we prioritise fixes that have the greatest user impact.

We maintain an internal accessibility policy that guides how new features are designed and how existing pages are improved. Inclusive design principles influence procurement, development and content publishing so that accessibility is considered from the start rather than retrofitted later.

Key accessibility features and practices include:

• Screen-reader support through semantic HTML and ARIA where needed
• Reliable keyboard navigation and clear focus outlines for interactive controls
• Compliance work aligned to WCAG 2.1 AA success criteria
• Readable typography and high contrast options for improved visibility
• Accessible forms with descriptive labels, error identification and guidance

We recognise that there may still be instances where a particular page, booking widget or document does not meet expectations. If you encounter barriers when using our Greenwich skip hire services, please let us know so we can take prompt action. We welcome reports of accessibility problems so we can prioritise fixes and make immediate accommodations where feasible.

To request accessibility support or to obtain information in an alternative format, please use the contact form or accessibility request option on our website. You may ask for documents in large print, plain text, or other formats, and we will respond to reasonable requests in a timely manner. We do not publish contact details here but provide clear channels for accessibility requests via our site navigation.

Our commitment extends to training staff and suppliers involved in skip hire Greenwich operations so that customer interactions are handled respectfully and effectively. We monitor progress and publish updates to our accessibility efforts as they become available to ensure transparency and continuous enhancement of accessibility across all services.
