Sensible skip hire
If you’re putting a skip on the public highway, make sure it can be seen. Even on well lit roads, it can sometimes be truly amazing how things can just seemingly disappear on a dark night. People, bicycles and cars are all easily missed at night in a brief glance - and they move! A skip, a large metal container that doesn’t move and creates large areas of shadow, is far from the perfect design to ensure high visibility at night.
For exactly this reason there are certain regulation surrounding essential markings on skips and also how you must identify them at night with flashing lights when they are positioned on the public highway.
