Things you should know about renting a skip.
The 7 things you should know when hiring a skip are listed below. Whether you are hiring a skip for the first time or have hired a skip before, the list will help you make the right choice and be prepared.
What can you not put in a skip?
Whether the waste you are planning on putting into a skip meets the skip company's criteria is one of the most important factors to consider. You can find details on our blog about the items that cannot be included. Such as
-
Asbestos
-
Gas bottles
-
Food waste
How Long Will I Have The Skip Hire?
Since our standard skip hire period is for 7 days, it's crucial to remember whether this will be enough time. We can increase the length of our services at a charge, just get in touch with us. You may also contact us if you want us to pick up your skip sooner.
How Much Can Each Skip Hold?
We offer skip sizes ranging from 2-yard skips up to 8-yard skips. Whether you are carrying out a small house clearance or taking on a big gardening project, we have the right skip for you. You can find out how many rubbish bags a skip holds, how big it is, and what kinds of work it can handle.
Where Can I Put The Skip?
It's easy for us to accommodate most driveways with our smaller skips. If you'd like to put the skip somewhere else or if you're hiring a larger skip, you must know its dimensions. It should also be straightforward to use, both for disposing of your rubbish and for our trucks for pick up and drop off. Skips must not block pedestrians or the street.
Do I Need A Permit?
If you want to put the skip on the road, you need to obtain a permit from your local council. When you request a roadside pickup, we will organise a permit for you. Otherwise, a skip can be placed outside your home as long as it is not an obstruction and doesn't violate any traffic rules.
