What materials can be put inside a skip?

Here is a list of common objects and materials that skip hire companies in Howick will not allow their skips to be used for: -Hazardous chemicals like asbestos -Industrial batteries -Gas cylinders -Medical waste -Electrical appliances -Tyres -Fuel

What are the weight limitations of a skip?

Skips come in different sizes and have different weight limitations. As a rule of thumb, one cubic metre can hold about one metric tonne (1000kg) of waste. However, it depends on the waste materials and how much physical space they can take up.

Can I fill a skip above the brim?

Most skips have a ‘maximum fill line’ that clearly indicates how much the skip can be filled. If you attempt to fill the skip above this point, you compromise the safety of transporting the skip from point A to point B. The driver might ask you to remove some of the bulkier materials. Think about how you will fill your skip before the skip hire professionals in Howick even arrive. You can place the larger items carefully so that you avoid gaps between materials and objects.

Am I allowed to keep the skip over night?

Yes, plenty of skip hire professionals in Howick allow clients to keep their skip for a prolonged period of time. It could be a couple of hours, days or weeks. In addition, you could sign a year-long contract too. Large business offices and apartment complexes in Howick will usually need a skip available at all times.

A mini skip is a more compact version of the larger skips that are commonly used. Mini skips will be delivered on a specially designed trailer that is towed behind a large pick-up truck. The smaller skip bin is then offloaded from the trailer and left on site to be filled. You can fill the skip up on your own or hire people in Howick to do it for you. A good skip hire company in Howick should have workers available for these services. Once the skip is filled up, it will be collected and the company will dispose of the waste legally. There are designated dumping grounds in Howick.
