This blog outlines several ways that an individual can save on skip-hire expenses. Read the following recommendations on permits and prices, restricted items, and recycling to glean the many ways to save money on skip hire in Dover.

Permits and costs

If you don’t have enough space for a skip in your driveway or garden, you’ll need to get a permit from the council to place it on a public road. Costs for these permits vary depending on where you live in the UK. However, getting a permit is essential before placing a skip on a public road. Without one, you could be fined.

Try and Avoid Restricted Items

As someone who works in the skip hire industry, I can tell you that we prefer it when customers take the time to check what they’re putting in their skip. This helps us to ensure that all the waste is directed to the appropriate location for processing.

If we are forced to segregate waste to remove forbidden items, it invariably leads to additional costs that are passed on to the customer. It’s much simpler and more convenient for everyone if you check what you’re putting in as you fill it. Avoid any confusion or extra cost by doing this simple step.

Recycling

We all know we should be doing our bit to help the environment, but sometimes it can be difficult to know where to start. A great place to begin is by looking at ways to reduce, reuse and recycle your waste.
