Big is beautiful
Skips are available in a surprising range of sizes and shapes. Beyond the essential decision about when you actually need your skip delivering and collecting, what size of skip you choose is most likely the biggest decision you will make surrounding skip hire. This is assuming that you’ve already made the sensible choice to use us at Simpsons Skip Hire for your London skip hire needs.
Size of skip is important for many reasons; clearly the larger the skip, the greater the cost but as a customer, your prime consideration should be to optimise the cost and productivity of your skip hire experience. Doing this doesn’t necessarily mean that the cheapest skip to hire will be the most cost effective.
The generally accepted logic surrounding skip hire is that if you’re stuck choosing between two different sizes, you should choose the bigger one. There are several reasons for this.
If your skip proves to be too small, you may find that a second skip is required to finish your project, which will ultimately cost more than the one skip. Even if you find the skip is just large enough to handle all of your waste, you may find that loading it a typical mix of black bin bags and assorted other odd shapes of varying or non-existent flexibility proves to be a challenge beyond that of even the most complex jigsaws. There are other benefits such as larger skips having walk in access whereas smaller ones do not. This could prove to be a significant benefit when dealing with heavy waste.
