Maximising skip waste

2nd Apr 2020

Are you planning a clear out and thinking about hiring a skip? Skip hire offers a convenient and simple solution to waste disposal, below we’ll take a look at ways you can maximize the amount of waste you can fit in your skip. Of course, skips can only be filled so much but with some clever tips, you can make sure you get rid of all the waste with ease. If you’re planning to hire a skip in the Sheffield or Rotherham areas, take a look at our great prices and enjoy our friendly service.

Break Larger Pieces Down

Larger objects can take up more than their fair share of space but by simply breaking them up into smaller pieces where possible you can make sure there’s enough space for all the items. People often throw the large items into the skip first and then are left struggling when they’ve run out of space. Use this hack to avoid this.

Pack the Lighter Objects First

If you pack the lighter and smaller objects first and then the heavier items on top you’ll find you have more space. This method of packing allows the smaller items to become more compact thanks to the weight and pressure of the items above as you pile them into the skip. This means there will be more space on the top of the skip for the larger items.

Start with the Right Size Skip

When you decide to book skip hire, it is important to consider the different sizes of skip available. If you are unsure and looking for skip hire in Sheffield or Rotherham  then you can speak to one of the Mr Rubble experts who can help to ensure you choose the best skip for the amount of waste you have. In other areas, contact your local skip company and they will be more than happy to assist you. If you are really torn between two sizes, always upsize!

Why Bother?

By using these tips, you can ensure you get the most out of your hired skip. This means you can not only save money that could’ve been spent on an extra skip but you can also make sure you get the clear-out done and dusted quickly and easily.
