Choosing The Right Skip Hire Company
When hiring a skip in the London area there are several things to consider.
What size of skip do you require?
This will obviously depend on the intended use of the skip. For most domestic and small building site purposes, a midi-skip is probably the best skip for the job, holding approximately 40 black bags of waste. You also need to make sure that the skip you order is suitable for the type of materials and waste that you are managing. Skips range from this relatively small 4-yard skip, right up to roll on/roll off skips for major waste management. A good skip company will have a wide range of skips in different sizes and types so they can be sure to find the right skip for your needs.
Where will your skip be placed?
If the answer is on a public highway, then a skip permit needs to be applied for. Different boroughs in London have different rules relating to permits, their duration and cost, and there may also be other fees relating to the congestion charge if your skip hire company doesn’t already include this in their other charges. A good skip hire company like Simpson’s Skip Hire will always have this necessary permit information to hand when you contact them regarding a hire.
