Be aware that skip hire may require a skip hire permit which will cost money and takes time to organize.
When it’s dark or visibility is poor because of fog or mist, place reflective cones or flashing marker lights around the skip.
Builders Skips: Suitable for domestic or business. The most popular type of skip.
Large Skips: Capacity, 12-14 cu yards or 9.2 - 10.7 cu meters. Height, 5'3” or 1.6 meters. Length, 13'8” or 4.2 meters. Width 6’ or 1.84 meters.
If you’re skip needs to be placed on the pavement or road, then it’s the up to the skip hire company to make sure they have a valid licence or permit for the skip.
Try to think realistically about what needs to thrown away. Two small skips will cost more to hire than a large one.
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.
Large Skips: Suitable for domestic or business use. Ideal for big bulky items.
If your skip isn’t filled and its contents aren’t stable, cover with dampened or netting to prevent inside waste materials from blowing out.
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
