Benefits of 4 tonne skip hire in the North West

4 tonne skip hire offers many more benefits than just convenience, including:

  • Affordability

Hiring one of our 4 tonne skip is much more cost-effective than hiring a rubbish removal team or a man and van type service to come in and get rid of your rubbish for you.

Rather than paying them by the hour to do all the work, you’ll only have to pay us for your two-week hire period and hire permit, if this is required.

  • Sustainability

At GSH, we aim to recycle up to 90% of the waste we collect in our containers – including our 4-tonne skips – and our environmentally friendly solutions are designed to be fully compliant with all current EU legislation.

  • No legal issues

Let’s say you do use a man and van to help you get rid of your rubbish – who’s to say that they won’t just dump it all on the side of the road?

Unfortunately, some companies are focused more on the money rather than their waste disposal methods, so will happily leave your rubbish anywhere rather than taking it to be recycled.

This rubbish can still be traced back to you, and you’ll still be held responsible – meaning you’ll be the one who receives a fine and maybe even jail time (!) for flytipping.

When you hire a skip with us, you won’t have to worry about this, as we’re committed to eco-friendly waste disposal methods.

4 tonne skips at GSH

Our 4 tonne skips here at GSH are one of, if not the most convenient ways to dispose of mass amounts of waste.

Being able to accommodate up to 45 bin bags full of rubbish, this skip size is perfect for small home makeovers – like kitchen or bathroom refits, bedroom makeovers and garden spruce-ups.

At GSH, we understand that skip hire isn’t a one-size-fits-all kind of service, which is why we’re proud to be able to provide flexible skip hire services in the North West to meet the requirements of all of our customers.

This means that we can drop off and pick up your skip whenever best suits you – be it two weeks after your initial hire period or a week before – and once your skip is full, we’ll collect and dispose of it in the most eco-friendly way possible.

All you have to do is fill it!

So, whatever you have planned, you can be certain that 4 tonne skip hire is the best waste disposal route you can go down.

What can’t I put in my 4 tonne skip?

The good news is that you can toss most unwanted belongings into your 4 tonne skip, but there are a few things you need to be wary of.

Items you can’t put in a 4 tonne skip include:

  • Household chemicals – bleach, pesticides, etc.
  • Plasterboard
  • Mattresses
  • Batteries
  • Electrical items – TVs, refrigerators, old mobile phones, laptops, etc.
  • Gas cylinders
  • Lightbulbs
  • Plasterboard
  • Tyres, Rubber Matting, Astroturf
  • Medical, biological or laboratory waste
  • Asbestos

If you come across any of these items, it’s vital you dispose of them correctly to keep yourself, our staff and the environment safe.

Depending on your local council’s rules and regulations, you may be able to take them to the recycling centre, but it’s always best to check before doing so.

Or, if you’d prefer, call our waste disposal experts for specialist advice and we’d be happy to help!

Will I need a skip hire permit?

The answer to this question depends on one thing and one thing only. And that is where you plan on leaving your container.

If you have the space to leave your 4 tonne skip in your garden or on your drive, you won’t need to obtain a permit, as this is your own private property.

However, if you don’t have the luxury of a large garden or driveway, you may need to leave it on the road or pavement outside your property – in which case, you’ll need to apply for a skip hire permit.

Public roads, grass verges, pavements – AKA public highways – are owned by local councils, so you need their permission if you want to leave your skip hire container there.

At GSH, we’re happy to apply for a skip hire permit on your behalf for an additional fee. Just let us know when booking your skip where you plan on leaving your container and how long you need it. The cost of skip permits and hire periods vary from council to council.

How long can I keep a 4 tonne skip for?

At GSH, you can hire a 4 tonne skip for up to two weeks.

However, we pride ourselves on being able to offer a flexible service, which means we’re happy to accommodate your requirements wherever possible.

For instance, if you need to extend your hire period, we’re more than happy to do so. All we ask is that you let us know in plenty of time, and we’ll arrange a more convenient collection time.

How much does it cost to hire a 4 tonne skip?

Several factors will determine how much it costs to hire a 4 tonne skip, whether or not you need a skip hire permit and your location.

Being the smallest of our domestic skips, our 4 tonne containers are the most affordable and perfect for if you’re only working on a small home clear-out or renovation project, for example.

However, if the skip is going on council property, the longer you need to hire a 4 tonne skip, the more expensive your hire period will be, and there are additional fees for things like skip hire permits to keep in mind. The cost of skip permits and hire periods vary from council to council.

For an accurate idea of how much 4 tonne skip hire could cost in your area send us an email or call us on 0151 424 4079 today!
