Whether you’re a small business that needs to dispose of unwanted office furniture or a larger retail or manufacturing enterprise with plenty of excess materials, skip hire is a versatile solution that can help reduce the build-up of waste.
In short, skip hire is suitable for a multitude of different businesses, large and small, helping them to clear the clutter to keep their operations moving.
But beyond simply hiring commercial skips, what are some of the decisions that need to be made beforehand, so the business in question makes the most of the skip they have and the time that it’s available?
At A&R Skips, we’re experienced in serving individuals and businesses with exceptional Wigan skip hire and the surrounding areas, and are your ideal choice for cheap skip hire, whatever it is you do.
With this in mind, here are a few ways strategic skip hire can help keep the waste out from underfoot, helping your business continue to move in a desirable direction clutter-free.
The variables local businesses need to consider in their skip hire needs
Plan the dates of your skip hire accordingly
Depending on how quickly your business is producing waste, you may need to utilise skip hire services more frequently than others.
These are often businesses that are aware of how much waste they produce, and their need for regular skips.
However, businesses that produce waste at a slower or less consistent rate may struggle to know when the time is right to hire a skip.
In these situations, it’s good to consider when waste is becoming a health hazard, or if it is putting your business’s reputation at risk – nobody wants to see mounds of excess goods scattered around your premises, customers included.
So use common sense, look at how much waste you’re producing with a keen eye and plan for the delivery of your skip when you need it most.
If you’re against the clock, at A&R Skips, we offer next-day skip delivery to dispose of unwanted goods or rubbish, before your skip is collected promptly once you’re done.
Choose the correct skip size for your needs
There’s nothing worse than ordering a skip to deal with excess business waste, only for it to arrive and be too small to take care of the issue.
Why? Because you’ll be left with even more excess waste to deal with on your next skip delivery, or will need to dispose of it yourself – which could be a nightmare if it’s particularly large or unpleasant.
That doesn’t mean you can overfill your skip, though. Not only will your skip hire provider likely refuse to take it, but these skips can be dangerous and leave those in the nearby area prone to trips, slips, snags or other injuries. Check out our blog on overfilling skips here to learn more.
If you’re a business that’s never utilised skip hire services before, the best way to tell what size skip you will need is to pile up your waste (if possible) and try to measure the pile’s size against the depth of your chosen skip.
At A&R Skips, we offer numerous skip sizes to meet your needs, including 2 cubic-yard, 4 cubic-yard and 8 cubic-yard, so we’ll always have the right size skip to suit you.
Double-check your skip contents
While some people believe you can throw whatever you want into a skip, it’s simply not the case.
It is in fact illegal to throw certain items in a skip – you can learn more about the reasons why at our blog here.
So if you’re a business with varied waste being produced regularly, it would be wise to separate the items that can be disposed of in a skip from those that can’t at your earliest convenience.
That way, later down the line, you won’t need to spend time rushing around, digging through your excess waste, just to make sure you follow the rules.
