When it comes to disposing of waste, you might find yourself at a crossroads: should you hire a skip or opt for a rubbish collection service? While skips have their merits, here are 10 compelling reasons that might make rubbish collection your first choice.
No Need to Play Tetris: With a rubbish collection service, there’s no need to strategically stack your waste, trying to make everything fit into a confined space. The team will collect, sort, and dispose of your waste, regardless of how it’s piled.
Kiss Permit Woes Goodbye: Hiring a skip often requires obtaining a permit, especially if it’s placed on public property. Rubbish collection services, on the other hand, are quick and efficient, often requiring no special permissions.
Safety First: Overfilled skips can be dangerous, posing risks of injury to passersby. Rubbish collection teams are trained to handle waste safely, reducing the risk of accidents.
No Duration Limit: Skips have rental periods, and if you need them longer, they’ll cost extra. Rubbish collection services work on-demand, arriving when you’re ready, without the pressure of a ticking clock.
Better for the Environment: Professional rubbish collection services often come with a sorting process, ensuring that recyclables don’t end up in the landfill. Skips, however, can sometimes lead to more mixed waste, reducing the efficiency of recycling.
Space-Savers: Skips take up significant space. If you’re short on parking or driveway room, a large skip can be inconvenient. A rubbish collection truck is only there for a short period, freeing up your space almost immediately.
No Heavy Lifting: Why break a sweat tossing heavy items into a skip? With the rubbish collection, the team does the heavy lifting, sparing your back and muscles.
Surprising Cost Efficiency: While many believe skips are the cheaper option, the hidden costs – such as permits, overfill penalties, or extended rental periods – can add up. The rubbish collection offers a more predictable pricing structure.
No Aesthetic Disruption: Let’s face it, skips aren’t the prettiest sight and can stay on your property for days. Rubbish collection is more discreet, maintaining the visual appeal of your premises.
Holistic Service: Some rubbish collection services go the extra mile by offering cleaning or tidying up after the pick-up. With skips, once they’re gone, any remaining mess is yours to manage.
In conclusion
Wwhile skips might be the traditional waste disposal choice, the benefits of rubbish collection are hard to ignore. From safety to efficiency to aesthetics, there’s a myriad of reasons to consider the latter for your next big clean-out.
