How To Put Items In A Skip

When filling a skip, there are certain guidelines you should follow to ensure the safety of yourself and others, and to make the most of the space available in the skip.

• Break down larger items to make them more compact, and to prevent them from taking up too much space in the skip.
• Do not overfill the skip, as this can make it unstable and unsafe to transport. Fill the skip to the level of the sides only.
• Do not mix different types of waste in the skip, as this can make it difficult to dispose of properly.
• If you have heavy items to dispose of, such as bricks or soil, place them at the bottom of the skip to distribute the weight evenly.
