Sometimes you need a skip on your property for a few days. However, there are also times when this isn't the optimum solution. Sometimes, it's better to use a wait and load service.
Here, the skip company brings the bin to you as usual, but they don't drop it off. They wait while you fill it and they then take it away immediately. When is this a good option?
1. You Don't Have Space for a Skip
It can be hard to find room for a skip close to your home. For example, if you live directly on a road, don't have a driveway or live in an apartment block, you might find it hard to get suitable space that can be kept free for a few days.
In some cases, you might be able to allocate room for a skip; however, you need to pay for a council permit in advance. This just adds to your costs and you might not be able to get a suitable spot close to home.
If you use a wait and load service then you don't have to worry about where the skip goes. It arrives, you fill it and then it's gone.
2. You Want to Get Rid of Large Items
Sometimes it can take a while to fill a skip. For example, if you're having a big clear-out at home then it will take you some time to go through every room and dump what you don't want in the skip. In this scenario, having a skip on site for a few days works well.
However, sometimes you can fill a bin pretty quickly. For example, if you only want to get rid of a few large items then you could fill the skip in no time at all.
A wait and load service is ideal here. Once the skip arrives, you just throw in your stuff and get rid of it immediately.
3. You Don't Want Other People Using the Bin
Skips can be magnets for people in your neighbourhood who see them as a free and easy way of getting rid of their own rubbish. They may sneak along and dump stuff in your skip when you aren't around.
Problem is, they may throw away things that aren't supposed to go in the bin. This will give you problems with your skip supplier. Or, if you're paying by weight, you could end up paying to get rid of someone else's stuff.
A wait and load service ensures that only you can put things in the bin you're paying for. Your neighbours will have to sort out their own rubbish.
