Automated Phone Recycling Machines May Prevent Hiring A Skip

 

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.

Recent skip hire and recycling news reports that Apple now offer cashback and recycling in UK

The new service, currently operated by big company Dataserv, is currently available to anyone in the US but was only offered to Europe recently.

A spokesman for Apple said “Whether it’s an iPhone, iPad, Mac or PC computer, working or not, we’ll take it and determine if it qualifies for reuse and has a monetary value. If it does, the amount will be credited directly into your bank account. If it doesn’t, you can recycle it responsibly through one of our free recycling programmes,”

Once the item looking to be recycled has been valued it can be sent in for a tidy profit and even items with no value can be sent in for free!

This doesn’t mean that this company will take all your waste however when looking to get rid of your old T.V in your skip or using skips and skip hire in general to get rid of things like your fridge-freezer or computer screen there may now be another option. It may also change what skip size you’ll need thus reducing the cost of skip hire.

Makes the saying “Where there’s s*** there’s money” hold true even in this current climate!

Skip hire in Borehamwood and Greater London could undergo changes

Anyone seeking skip hire in Borehamwood and Greater London might be interested in the rubbish disposal changes announced by Barnet Council.

The authority will no longer send letters to residents detailing the dates when skips will be made available, according to the Times-Series.

In fact, locals will now receive a stripped-down version which encourages them to check information online.

This comes as part of cost-cutting measures announced by the council.

Don’t snaffle scrap metal from skips

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!

Skip hire could come to the rescue down under

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.
