Mmmm…skips
Apparently, these guys love skips so much that they opened a restaurant in its honour.
Or so it would seem.
The eatery recently closed its doors after 62 years of service.
The Diner Hotline Weblog quoted resident Rusty Simpson as saying – somewhat bizarrely – “This place is like a bible for a lot of people”.
Located in the amusingly named Chelmsford, Massachusetts, it bears about as much relation to Chelmsford, Essex, as Skips Restaurant does to rubbish skips.
However, we live in hope that an authentic skip-themed diner will one day open its doors.

Skip Cost – What Makes Up The Price You Pay?
We often get asked why skip costs are the way they are. A lot of people expect to pay peanuts for what is essentially an unglamorous but essential commodity. There’s a number of things in skip hire that make up the cost:
- Haulage
- Recycling costs
- Disposal costs
- Landfill tax
- Staff and drivers’ wages
- Plant hire costs
- Cost of the land that the business runs
- Fuel costs
- Administration
- Insurance
There’s definitely more to getting rid of rubbish thank meets the eye. For more advice on this, ring our skip experts at TopSkips.com on 08445 60 77 10.
