How Do I Use My Skip?

Werll, fortunately for you, the good guys at Topskips have compiled a page stating the Dos and Don’ts of skip hire – a must read if you’re in the stages where you’re ready to book your skip. A lot of it is common sense (don’t start a fire in your skip), but you might get some useful tips that you might not have thought about. Check it out the page on the Topskips website – “How To Use Your Skip”.

Can I Move My Skip When and Where I Like?

When it comes to domestic skip hire, we would recommend not moving a skip once the driver has placed it on your site/premises. The reasons why are manifold:

1) The driver communicates with you and uses his own experience on where the best place is to put the skip – he/she will know where you need it to go and also where it is safe to go and manage that expectation.

2) Moving it can cause injury – A skip is about a fifth to a quarter of a tonne – plus the waste you may already have inside it.

3) Not only can it cause injury, but it can cause huge damage to the land where the skip is lying on. A skip company is not liable for the damge caused once you have moved a skip on grass or pavestones or other more delicate ground.

4) Moving the skip may make it impossible for the driver to collect it. If you shove it down an alleyway for example, there’s no chance a 7.5 tonne or 10 tonne truck will be able to squeeze through a 5 foot gap to collect it. This equals major problems!

What is the Shortest Amount of Time I Can Have a Skip For?

Topskips allow you to have skip hire for as long as you want it. You can have a skip on site for as little as five minutes – this is a wait and load – and you can fill the skip up while the skip wagon waits. As soon as you’ve filled it, we drive off to recycle the waste. This is handy in situations when you need the waste to go, but don’t necessarily have the room to place a skip down. (One thing we’ve noticed is that this service is very popular in London: because the capital is so densely populated, there often isn’t much space for a big metal box the size of a car!)

Or you can take your time, leisurely throwing in your waste over the maximum hire limit of 21 days. Basically, you call the shots. Call our skip hire professionals on 08445 607 710 to tell us what you want.

Why Don’t Topskips Provide Prices Online?

We get a lot of phone calls regarding skip prices and why we don’t publish these prices online.

The truth is that we did do this back in 2005 and our sales halved because people were just using us as a price comparison site, which is not what we are. We offer the best service in the UK. However, if putting our prices online halves our sales, it would be suicide to repeat this. Saying that, you can access our price calculator when you order online, and there are extra discounts in there (because it costs us less to take the order).

If you need any help on skip prices, ring our skip bods on 08445 607710
