Here at TopSkips we get asked a lot of questions by customers about skip hire and it occured to us that there may be lots of you wondering about the very same issues. So we've decided to answer these questions through the blog...starting today!
Q: "I would like to know the price of a 6 cubic yard skip with a drop door".
A: The 6 cubic yard skip with drop down door allows one end to be lowered for use as a ramp and would have a hire charge around the same as a normal 6 cubic yard skip (remember though; prices vary dependent on location).
They are commonly available in 6 yard and 8 yard sizes with the very rare occurance of a 4 or 2 yarder being documented. The drop down door is particularly useful for work involving a wheelbarrow, possibly transporting heavy inert material and results in the largest type of this skip coming in at 8 yards as that's the most inert a wagon can carry.
Industry lingo: 'drop ends', 'drop down doors', 'tailgates'.
