Hire a Skip for Your Home in Midsomer Norton
There are many reasons why you may need to hire a skip, such as clearing out your garage, transforming your garden or even renovating your home. With years of experience in skip hire, providing to both domestic and commercial clients, we are confident we can help provide you with the perfect sized skip for your needs.
We have a range of skip sizes, depending on how much material and what type of material you need to dispose of. Our smallest skips start at 6 yards for inter, hardcore or mixed waste. We also have 8-yard, 10-yard and 12-yard skips for inter, hardcore or mixed waste with both options of open or enclosed skips. We can help you when deciding what skip you need, based on your project, where the skip will be stored and the material that will be added to the skip.
When hiring a skip, you must consider if you have the required room to store one. Many roads in Midsomer Norton are narrow, one-way or windy country lanes. This means the location of where you need to put one is something to consider before purchasing. For example, if you don’t have room for a 12-yard skip, you should contemplate hiring a 6-yard skip twice.
Another factor to consider when hiring a skip is where it will be stored. If your property has a private driveway or you own private property, then you can keep your skip stored there. On the other hand, if the only place you can store your skip is on a public road or highway, then you’ll require a skip licence from the Somerset Council. You must apply for your skip 10 days before it is required. Your permit is valid for 28 days, if you require a longer period then you must apply for an extension.
