Why is the lowest price not always best when it comes to skip hire?

If you’re looking to hire a skip, there’s lots of different factors to consider; Can the skip get to my desired location? Is it the best right size? And perhaps one of the biggest factors, how much is the skip?

You may have found a skip at a great price, however the lowest cost means you may sacrifice the quality of service.

Did you know that even if you use a skip hire service, where the waste ends up is actually your responsibility? So you might think you’ve found a great, high quality service but because of the low price the company may use methods such as fly-tipping to dispose of the waste; this is a criminal offence!

In 2015/2016 there were 936,000 fly-tipping cases that were dealt with; a 4.0% increase from the previous year. Not only are there legal aspects to think about, there are environmental factors too. Hiring a skip company you can trust is extremely important; where you might save on cost means you may lose out on sustainable disposal methods.
