Commercial skip hire

If you run a commercial business in Towcester, Brackley or surrounding areas, the likelihood is that your levels of waste far surpass that of any domestic household. The types of waste produced commercially also differ, and at various points in the year it may make sense to hire a skip to deal with any surplus waste or clear outs. So, if you’re considering skip hire companies in Buckingham, contact Graham Churchill Plant Ltd and we can assist with all your skip hire needs.

As a help for our commercial clients, we’ve put together a guide to what you need to know about skip hire in the Banbury and Bicester areas.

What Skip Hire Can be Used For

If your business has produced a significant amount of waste due to a project or say, an office refurbishment, you can hire a skip to make sure that it is all cleared out at once so that it doesn’t mount up. If you have moved your premises, there may be a lot of old stock that needs to be thrown out, or bags of debris that have rubbish from the move. Same day skip hire is a very handy way to get rid of something that needs to be taken away straight away.

Different Sizes

Depending on your industry, you may need different sizes of skip to deal with the level of waste you produce. For instance, construction companies generate much more waste than an office. Trading companies often need to hire a bigger skip to contain their waste. If you wish to dispose of heavy, dense material such as soil or stones, you can’t hire a skip any bigger than eight yards as it won’t be able to be lifted by the lorry. Skip sizes start around 2 yards and go up to 16 yards (but need to be filled with less dense materials).

 

Permits

If you wish to place a skip on public property, you will need a permit. Depending on the location of larger skips, you may face further restrictions. Check with your local council regarding the rules that surround placing the skip as you may need safety lights, traffic cones or reflective markings. If you use Graham Churchill Plant Ltd for your skip hire, we can assist with permits for you.

Access and Location

It's important to place your hired skip somewhere that doesn’t disrupt your nearby neighbours such as other businesses or domestic owners. You need a location that has good access so that the truck can easily manoeuvre the skip into position. Also make sure that you are not blocking anything or causing a fire hazard with your skip.

Recycling Waste

Recycling waste has never been more important so it will give you peace of mind to know that Graham Hill Churchill Plant are committed to recycling as much waste as possible.
