Responsible skip hire companies use (and often own) licensed waste transfer stations that are regulated by the Enviroment Agency and it's worth checking out the Institute of Wastes Management of which the best skip hire companies are members.
When hiring a skip in the UK you'll need to know about the rules and regulations. Did you know that if you wanted to leave your skip on a public road that you will need a skip permit from your local council?
When applying for your permit, it is worth knowing how long you want to hire the skip for. The duration for domestic skip hire is normally less than a month but commercial skips can often be a long-term fixture. If your skip is going to be on a public road for long durations you will have to re-apply for your skip permit from your local council. Fortunately, Shaw Skips Ltd can give you advice on skip permits – and actually get one for you.
