Why Hire A Skip?

Waste disposal is vital to any project, whether a small home refurb or an extensive commercial construction project. Ensuring the correct disposal of waste is critical not only for safety reasons but also for environmental reasons. One of the best ways to manage waste removal is via skip hire. Here are some benefits of hiring a skip for removing waste.

Saves Time

Hiring a skip from Skip Hire Walsall is incredibly convenient and time-saving. Rather than making multiple trips to the local tip, you can fill up the skip and have it removed when it's full. Then if you need another, call us, and we can get one to you in no time. This saves time and effort, allowing you to focus on other important parts of your project.

Are Skips Environmentally Friendly?

At Skip Hire Walsall, we believe in responsible waste disposal and protecting the environment. We understand that people may have concerns about the environmental impact of skip hire, but we're glad to tell you that using a skip is a very eco-friendly way to dispose of waste, especially compared to other methods. When you hire a skip from us, you can relax knowing that the waste is being disposed of in an environmentally friendly way. We are fully licensed and compliant and ensure that as much waste as possible is recycled or repurposed.

How Does Skip Hire Compare to Other Types of Waste Disposal?

Skip-hire is a much more friendly choice compared to other types of waste disposal, such as landfill or incineration. When waste is sent to a landfill, it can take hundreds of years to decompose and releases harmful gases such as CO2 into the atmosphere. Incineration can also be toxic, releasing pollutants into the air. However, when you hire a skip, your waste is sorted and separated at a waste management facility. Materials such as metal, wood, and plastic can be recycled or reused, reducing the amount of material ending up in a landfill.

When Do You Need A Permit For Skip Hire?

When hiring a skip, it's vital to be aware you may need to obtain a permit before you can put a skip on public land. In the UK, if you plan to place a skip on a public road or footpath, you must obtain a permit from your local council. This ensures the skip does not obstruct or cause safety hazards for pedestrians and motorists. The process for obtaining a permit can alter depending on the local council, so it's necessary to check with them before you hire a skip. Some councils may take up to two weeks to issue a permit, so it's crucial to factor this into your planning.

If you plan to place the skip on private land, such as a driveway or garden, you will not need a permit. However, you'll need to ensure that the skip is placed on your own property and does not cause any damage or obstruction to neighbouring properties or public land. At Skip Hire Walsall, we can provide guidance on the permit application process and may even be able to help you obtain a permit. Give us a call to find out more.

How Much Does A Skip Hire Permit Cost?

Although skip-hire is seen to be the most cost-effective waste removal solution, it's essential to factor in the cost of a permit if required. In Walsall, the cost of a skip permit ranges from £35 to £100, depending on the location. Some councils may require additional fees for parking suspensions or road closures, so it's best to confirm the requirements with your local council before hiring a skip.

What Size Skip Do You Need?

Choosing the right size skip is integral to any waste disposal project. Skip Hire Walsall offers a range of skip sizes to suit all needs, from small household projects to large commercial jobs. Choosing the right size skip for your needs is essential to avoid overloading it or needing to hire another skip. Overfilling a skip can lead to additional charges or even fines from your local council. When choosing the right size skip, consider the amount and type of waste you will dispose of and the space available for the skip. If you need help selecting the right size skip for your project, our experienced team at Skip Hire Walsall can provide guidance and advice.

A mini skip may be the perfect size for your needs if you're working on a small household project, such as a bathroom renovation or garden clean-up. Our mini skips are 2 cubic yards and can hold around 20-30 bags of waste.

A midi skip may be more suitable for larger household projects, such as kitchen renovations or larger garden clearances. Our midi skips are 4 cubic yards and can hold around 40-60 bags of waste.

Suppose you're working on a larger commercial project, such as a construction site or demolition job. In that case, you may need a larger skip. Our builder's skips are available in sizes ranging from 6 to 14 cubic yards, depending on your needs. We can also accommodate skips up to 40 yards on request.
