Items in a skip

My partner has put a pane of glass and a mattress in a skip on our drive, then had a moan at me for not telling him these things aren’t allowed in (the guy who delivered it gave me a piece of paper with this information on and i signed for it, but i put it down without looking at it). What are the consequences if i left them in? Should i get them out? From the bottom of the skip

They may or may not come back to you with a charge for getting rid of the mattress. This could include petrol and time costs in addition to the fees for the mattress disposal.

Just how are you supposed to get rid of mattresses cos councils won't take them where I live.

Helen the dump take them but you have to pay.

Maybe the piece of paper you signed and then didn't read will tell you what will happen if you put prohibited items in the skip?

Not sure about glass, I work for a skip company and we charge extra for mattresses and electrical items
