Dispelling some skip myths
Skip hire in London requires a bit of planning and a customer-focused hire company with experience of working in London. If you have these things in place, skip hire should prove to be a really efficient and cost effective method for you to dispose of large scale waste.
Some of the reasons quoted for not using skips are that they can be expensive, the delivery may not be reliable, licenses need to be arranged and the waste doesn’t get recycled.
None of these claims are true with a well planned skip hire with a reputable firm such as us at Simpsons Skip Hire of London.
Skip hire may appear to have a high initial price. If it is a one off project, you may well start to compare skip hire costs to a couple of trips in a van or with a trailer. Once you begin to calculate the true cost of those trips in both fuel, wear and tear, inconvenience and most importantly time, the costs may suddenly look far more favourable for the skip. Heavy materials and awkward loads are ideally suited to skips.
Delivery can be unreliable if you select the wrong firm, but that is not something you should be obliged to worry about.
Licenses only affect skips that are to be placed on the public highway and are free to arrange. It is also important to remember that the local tip may also require a license for a trailer or van.
Approximately 70 - 80 per cent of waste is recycled through our waste management centres. The benefit is, we do all the work.
