THE shock moment a worker emptied a skip onto a customer's front garden after they 'couldn't pay their bill' has been captured on video.

The clip was posted on Facebook and has since gone viral with over 36,000 views.

 According to the owner of the skip company, the skip had been at the property for five weeks

According to Terry Harrison who owns Hull Skips and Aggregate, the skip had originally been hired out in Hull for seven days, but instead remained at the property for five weeks.

He told The Sun: "I finally got in touch with the people [who hired the skip] and they said they didn't have the money to pay.

"We said if you don't pay, what else can we do?

"The guy said tip it back on the driveway because we haven't got the money to pay for it so we did."

 Terry said the skip had been 'stacked' with concrete and wood up to 15 tonnes - over the ten tonne legal limit

"We couldn't have taken the skip on the road anyway because it's illegal.

"They'd stacked it that high and had that much concrete in it, it must have been 15 tonnes, and you can only carry ten tonnes on the road.  You'd end up getting pulled over or killing someone.

"That's why it says 'level load' on the skip, but some people just fill them as high as they can."

 Terry Harrison said the skip was stacked that high with concrete, it was too heavy and too dangerous to take it on the road

"And it's the driver's license as well - until he gets the skip back to the depot, he's liable for what happens on the road."

Terry added: ";We made sure no one was around to get hurt. There was no damage to the property."
