A Streetcar Named Skip Hire

We may never know whether Tennessee Williams had skip hire in mind when he wrote A Streetcar Named Desire, but the chances are, he probably didn’t.

That said, wouldn’t it be special to see a fabulous work of fiction dedicated to our favourite pastime?

This is how much skip hire means to Leytonstone residents

If there’s any doubt about how much skip hire means to Leytonstone residents, news of a fly-tipping breach in the area could speak volumes.

A staff member at Waltham Forest Council was responsible for fly-tipping in someone’s skip, leading to an apology from the authority.

According to the East London and West Essex Guardian Series, builder Dale Oseman was shocked when he discovered boxes belonging to the council dumped in his container.

He was disappointed at the apparent hypocrisy, in light of high-profile anti-fly-tipping campaigns in the area.

It needn’t put you off skip hire in London, as the council happily collected the boxes on hearing the news.

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.

High skip price in France leads to horse-drawn cart innovation

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.”

Skip hire in Halifax helps clean up wood

What are the best options for skip hire in Halifax?

One group of volunteers in the town might be well placed to answer, after a clean-up job was arranged to rectify problems caused by fly tippers.

Those who rolled up their sleeves were able to fill a large skip and two vanloads with waste, according to the Halifax Courier.

To cap it all off, participants planted bluebell and daffodil bulbs where once – probably – there had been rusting shopping trolleys and soiled nappies.

A job well done.
