When it’s dark or visibility is poor because of fog or mist, place reflective cones or flashing marker lights around the skip.
Midi Skips: Small, convenient and suitable for small low volume waste projects.
Never fill a skip with waste materials that could present a potential fire hazard or cause an explosion. Also, materials that could release toxic fumes, pose a health or environmental hazard should not be thrown into a skip.
Make sure that waste materials don’t stick out from the sides of the skip. This can pose a potential hazard for road users or pedestrians.
If you need to hire a skip, contact your local council, they may have a list of approved skip hire companies.
Your local council will be able to provide you with information on the placing of skips and permits.
Never overload your skip, make sure it’s emptied once it’s filled up.
Try to think realistically about what needs to thrown away. Two small skips will cost more to hire than a large one.
Large Skips: Suitable for domestic or business use. Ideal for big bulky items.
Usually the vehicle delivering the skip to your house will be a LGV and are normally very large. Make sure there is enough room to allow it in and out safely.
When carrying out renovations or building works to your property, you may find that you need to hire a builder's skip to get rid of the rubble or rubbish. 4th November, 2006
