Follow our tips to optimise space in our skips:
Plan Ahead
Before you start loading your skip, take a moment to plan the process. Think about the types of waste you have and the best order to load them. Start with flat items like wooden planks and old furniture to create a solid base.
Break Down Large Items
To maximise space, break down bulky items such as furniture or branches into smaller pieces. This ensures you can fit more waste into the skip and it avoids creating large gaps that other materials might not fit into as easily.
Distribute Weight Evenly
Place heavier items at the bottom of the skip and lighter materials on top. This not only maximises space but also ensures the skip is balanced to transport, making the process safer for you and equally as safe for drivers/operators.
Fill Gaps
Use smaller debris to fill gaps between larger items. This technique ensures no space is wasted and allows you to fit as much as possible into the skip. Put in larger items first, keeping them tightly packed to free up more space.
Avoid Overfilling
Do not overfill the skip above its sides. Overfilled skips are hazardous and may incur additional charges or fines. If you have more waste than you expected, consider calling us for supplementary skip hire in East Grinstead.
Prohibited Items
Certain items cannot be disposed of in skips due to environmental and safety regulations, and we advise that you be aware of them.
