Skip or Tip – What is Your Best Choice?

When doing a big clean-out or refurbishment at your home or premises, you will often be left with a large amount of waste or unwanted objects. While taking this to the skip is a viable option for many, there is an argument in some cases for hiring your own skip to make the process more convenient for you. Here, we run through some of the benefits of hiring a skip as opposed to making multiple trips to the tip.

More convenient

It goes without saying that only having to transport waste to the front of your house is much easier and more convenient than having to take it all the way to a tip, that may not be particularly near your property. Particularly with heavy objects, simply taking them out to the front of your property and placing them into a skip is a much simpler, less taxing process.

More space for waste

If you have a large amount of waste to dispose of at your property, it may take you a fair few trips to and from the skip to get rid of it all, depending on how large your car is. Why not save yourself the time and effort of travelling to and fro, and, instead, get a skip delivered to your property into which you can place all of your rubbish and unwanted objects.

Types of waste

Some types of waste will harbour a lot of dirt and dust, so it is a much better idea to place these directly into a skip rather than transporting them round in your car as this could make for an extremely mucky car interior. Save yourself the time and effort of cleaning your car, as well as running the waste to the tip, and simply place it directly into a skip outside of your property.

Skip placement

One of the main deterrents of hiring a skip for property owners is the consideration of whether they will have enough available space at their property to have it placed down without taking up too much space or blocking a road. It is important to know, though, that many skip hire companies offer a wait and load service, so if you are worried there is not enough space to place a skip down at your property, you can simply fill your skip and have it taken away without it having to sit outside your property unnecessarily if you do not have the space for it.
