Skip hire in London – Safety Matters

September 30th, 2010

Safety is the most important aspect of waste disposal, whether you are disposing of hazardous waste, or just goods that are particularly heavy. Whilst skip hire is a relatively clean way to dispose of your goods, it is far from free of safety constraints. Luckily, most of these adhere to common sense, and therefore ensure that your skip hire meets the proposed safety guidelines shouldn’t be too much of a headache.

Whether opting for skip hire in Southall or skip hire in Hackney, the weight of your skip once filled with waste should not contravene safety guidelines. For example, if you are filling the skip with particularly heavy goods, such as clay or soil, then there are limitations over what size skip you can use. Quite simply, skips that are too heavy will represent a danger whilst in transit.

On a similar note, it is crucial that your skip is filled correctly, and as well as not being too heavy once filled, all of the goods should be comfortably contained within the skip. This way you will ensure that there is no risk of goods falling out of the skip during transit.

Whilst skip hire is a relatively clean waste disposal solution, whether it is skip hire in Wembley or skip hire in Southall certain items are unavailable for skip disposal. For example, hazardous goods such as fridges and asbestos should all be disposed of by more appropriate means.

For example, if you are moving house and are planning a furniture clear out, then a skip can be the perfect disposal solution.

Skip hire in Enfield – Why Choose Simpson?

September 23rd, 2010

Even the most clean living amongst us can’t help but create a certain amount of waste in this day and age, as it is just a fact of the modern world. However, this doesn’t mean that we should be condemned by our rubbish. Instead, there are plenty of ways to dispose of waste effectively and cleanly.

At Simpson London skip hire, we represent a great solution to the age old problem of waste disposal – and that by choosing us for skip hire in Enfield you really are choosing wisely.

Convenience

The beauty of skip hire in Enfield is that when compared with other modes of waste disposal, skip hire is convenient. For example, a skip can be located close to a house or business, which will save you time when walking to and from the skip. At Simpson, we don’t think that this is quite convenient enough, and that is why we also try to make things like skip permit application as easy as possible, by securing permits on your behalf, if your borough allows it.

Experience

Admittedly, we are not the only skip hire company in London offering skip hire in Hackney and other areas. However, as well as our comprehensive approach to waste disposal, we think that we are separated from the competition by our experience in the industry. The eponymous John Simpson has enjoyed over two decades honing his business, to provide cleaner and more effective skip hire solutions.

No-one likes to think about waste. However, perhaps we all should think about it more.

This is especially important for businesses, as they are the UK’s most prolific producers of waste – and should therefore better understand what happens to it all.

With this in mind, it is essential that businesses of all size choose carefully when deciding on their Westminster skip hire, for example. Rather than just rushing blindly into a decision about waste disposal, they commit themselves with an awareness of their environmental impact.

At Simpson skip hire we think that you won’t do much better than choosing us for your skip hire in Hackney. As not only do we offer a streamlined service, freeing you wherever possible from the hassles of applying for permits etc. We are also committed to offering green solutions, which is why choosing our westminister skip hire will allow you to enjoy peace of mind, knowing that the large majority of your waste will be recycled.

London Skip Hire – the Simple way

September 17th, 2010

London is a fast moving city, perhaps the most vibrant in the world. Therefore, multi-tasking and effective time management have become intrinsic to what it means to be a modern day Londoner. With this in mind, an important but often overlooked practice like waste disposal can often fall by the way-side, and lead to businesses shirking on their responsibility. Not only would this be an ethical mistake, but it would also be a needless mistake, as by allocating your waste disposal requirement to a company like Simpson London skip hire, your waste will be disposed of effectively and easily.

One of the traditional problems with skip-hire – whether it is skip hire in harrow or skip hire in hackney – is that if you are planning to locate the skip on a public road, you will require permission from the local authority. At Simpson, we recognize that this can be a hassle, especially if you are moving house, and have more important things to worry about. Therefore, wherever we can, we will endeavour to get the appropriate permits on your behalf.

Another recurring problem with skip hire – from skip hire in harrow to skip hire in hackney – is that not everything can be disposed of via a skip. For example, fridges will have to be disposed of by alternative means. At Simpson we know that this defeats the point of convenient waste disposal, and that is why we will try and help you dispose of items appropriately.

Hounslow Skip Hire – what goes in and what stays out?

September 8th, 2010

Skip hire in Hounslow is a hugely effective way to dispose of the detritus associated with modern living – whether you’re moving house and want to downsize, or running a small business which needs to streamline its operations – skip hire remains a great way to do so.

99.9% of the things you will want to dispose of will happily go into your skip. However, as skips are often situated on places like roads, there are certain items that are banned from being disposed of in such a way because of environmental concerns.

Essentially, common sense would suggest that these prohibited items should be disposed of in a more delicate fashion. For example, things like vehicle batteries and asbestos – which are considered hazardous waste – should not even go near a skip.

There are also a few items that you might not have considered excluding from your skip hire in Wembley, Hounslow or your area. For example, you should not dispose of paint or tyres in skips, as these could also present an environmental and safety issue. Also, it is illegal to desipose of fridge freezers via a skip, due to the potentially hazardous materials from which they are made.

However, at Simpson Skip Hire in London, we work with a view to offering a comprehensive waste disposal solution. We will arrange for them to be disposed of through the proper channels on your behalf, should you so wish.

Although skips have been around for a long time, they remain the most effective way to dispose of significant quantities of waste and rubbish. Therefore, they are still fundamental to the operations of businesses and homeowners alike. In fact, with the advent of recycling, skip hire in London and beyond has begun to really awaken to modern environmental concerns – making skip hire a truly modern waste disposal solution.

Avoid new skip hire firms

August 30th, 2010

Obviously enough, skip hire firms are not all the same. The sector has a wide diversity of firms which operate within it. There are considerable variations in levels of diligence. Moreover, there are certainly disparities in how seriously the different firms take their environmental responsibilities. In addition, some firms are more closely attuned to their local area than others. Given the complex local regulatory arrangements which govern skip use, this is definitely something to think about.
However, one thing which can help you to differentiate between skip hire firms is the length of time they have been operating for. Testimonials should be looked at, but the actual duration of the specialist firm’s existence can be worth thousands of words. There is no substitute for experience in this game. Knowing the right way through the complex regulatory web is child’s play for experienced operators. New firms can easily forget a crucial fact or do something which breaches a regulation. This can backfire on those who hire them.

Not all new firms are run by ill-informed individuals, but some are. Some new firms could be run by people who are new to skips, while others may have been involved in failed enterprises of the past. If a firm is new on the block, it can be very tricky to find out whether or not their performance is as good as their advertising. Hence it makes sense to go for an operator which has accumulated relevant and local experience, such as here at Simpsons Skip Hire.
