A US company is to begin supplying automated phone recycling throughout the United States during 2012 and at Topskips we don’t just provide mini skip hire, midi skip hire and any skip sizes to any area of the UK, we also love to bring you the latest recycling and skip hire news.

The new recycling machine only available in America enables a person to choose their particular mobile handset from the huge list allowing the customer to then put their old handset into the phone recycling machine which then pays out it’s value there and then. The recycling machine will also take old MP3 players, mini disc and CD players.

The US company say that the machine will help towards the larger global problem of recycling this type of technology which becomes obsolete very quickly in the fast-paced home technology market.

A cat called Shandy and her young kitten have been found abandoned in – you guessed it – a skip.

But this isn’t just a typical sob story, because luckily the little baby has been re-housed, while Shandy waits with bated breath for the foster home of her dreams.

According to the New Rochelle Patch, the moggies were placed in a cardboard box that had been put in a rubbish container.

If you’re looking for budget skip hire without a cat inside, you’ve come to the right place.

Residents in south Gloucestershire might want to hire a skip to show their dedication to responsible waste disposal.

The local council is making a push to promote the collection of bottles and food waste in the area.

From November 22^nd, each home in the neighbourhood will receive a set of three collection bins.

Let’s hope it encourages locals to give recycling the thumbs-up.

Two offenders have been caught snaffling scrap metal from skips.

The Environment Agency has fired a warning shot to anyone transporting such content without the necessary licenses.

Steven Haim was fined £2,500 plus £400 in costs, while Alan Lee was handed a £2,000 slap on the wrists, plus £1,225 in costs.

The two breached the Control of Pollution Act 1989 by failing to register as waste carriers.

You see, responsible skip hire is the way forward!

For many residents in Australia, skip hire is at the forefront of their minds this year.

Northern Territory locals have had enough of lazy, idle, boneheads who dump rubbish in open spaces.

According to the Katherine Times, the culprits are “too lazy to put [the waste] in the skip bin placed outside … if it’s closed on the weekend”.

Will there be a backlash? It might be said that more Aussies than ever before will get on the phone and order a skip.

What could be more glamorous than a spot of skip hire in Wilmslow?

The area is continuing to attract a range of stylish boutiques along its main thoroughfares.

Retailers such as Joules and Black White Denim are the latest stores to arrive in the neighbourhood, according to The Business Desk.

But aside from bolstering their fabulous wardrobes, there are plenty of other ways in which Wilmslow residents can enjoy a glamorous lifestyle.

Skip hire, of course, is at the top of this list.

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.

You might not believe it, but horse-drawn carts are helping many French towns with rubbish collection duties.

Officials in locations such as Perpignan have compared the typical skip price with the cost of hiring equines.

What did they find out?

Naturally, it was determined that waste collection should be carried out by horses.

Jean Baptiste, the mayor of Peyrestortes, told the Guardian that the town’s medieval street layout made it difficult to bring out vehicles and skips.

Roads would often be blocked off, much to the chagrin of irate neigh-bours.

Mr Baptiste extolled the virtues of the approach, explaining: “The exhaust smells have gone, the noise has gone, and instead we have the clip-clop of horses’ hooves.”

If you live in Wiltshire, now might be a good time for you to compare skip hire prices.

It appears that many people in the county would like to see a deeper dialogue with the local council over waste disposal matters.

A high proportion of residents, according to the Wiltshire Times, favour kerbside collections and recycling initiatives.

Why not get on the phone and hire a skip today?

Like universal suffrage and universal healthcare, it appears that nationwide skip hire is an inalienable right Britons can’t do without.

Just look at the clamour for skips in Stoke-on-Trent, judging by a recent report in This Is Staffordshire.

It highlighted how residents are being given the opportunity to get rid of unwanted rubbish in a bid to promote environmental awareness and a feel-good atmosphere.

Local citizen Teresa Brassington explained how the efforts of the Safer City Partnership have meant she’s been able to clear out her old skirting boards.

She was quoted as saying: “It’s a good idea for them to come and collect it because it stops houses and gardens from getting overrun with rubbish.”
