Step One: Organise

Layering is the secret to quickly and efficiently loading a skip. The skip will need to be filled with different items at different times. When it comes to filling the skip, organising your waste into these distinct categories will make the task much more straightforward. The four groups listed below should be used to group items.

  • Flat items
  • Tessellate objects (e.g objects that can be stacked together, such as bricks)
  • Large or bulky items
  • Loose debris

The size of any large items should ideally be reduced as small as possible. This can be accomplished by, whenever possible, disassembling these items into smaller components. For instance, a lot of furnishings can be broken down into individual pieces. Tables that are divided into a flat surface and four table legs will be much simpler to manage and take up less space in your skip and easier to remove.

Step Two: Flat items

It’s time to start filling the skip after you’ve taken apart your big items and organised your remaining items. The flat objects should be put in your skip first. These are materials that will cover the base and can be easily compacted by items on top, such as cardboard, wood, or plasterboard. Before putting any boxes in the skip, make sure they are flattened. If you have a lot of these items, you can also put them around the skip’s edges in addition to the base.

Step Three: Tessellate objects

The next item to go in should be something that fits together easily, like bricks. Attempt to fill the base with these items to produce a level surface. Use some foresight to leave a space that will work for some of your leftover items if you can’t evenly cover the base.

Step Four: Large or bulky items

Items such as furnishings or appliances should go into the skip next. These things should be divided into their smallest components, as was previously mentioned. Rather than attempting to stack everything at once, arrange the objects as best you can so that they form layers. Utilise every inch of the available space and attempt to make use of any crevices that other objects may have left behind.

Step Five: Loose debris

Loose debris should be placed last. Gravel, sand, or soil fragments are examples of loose debris. These are placed last because they will typically take up all the empty spaces left by larger items.

I originally called up to enquire about a skip. Spoke to a very knowledgeable lady about what I needed and decided on a man with a van service as this was cheaper. Two days later, a man turns up with a big van and clears up all the rubbish on my drive and garage. Professional, polite and highly recommeded.

This is my first time using WK and I am so pleased that I choose them. I had a friendly conversation to arrange delivery. The skip was delivered on time and placed on my drive to also accommodate my car. Haven't filled it yet but will do very soon.

Always quick, efficient and friendly. Had several collections from WK during the renovation of my house. Tightness of access was a problem for skips but not for WK in their van based vehicles. Would recommend without doubt.

Great company to do business with, have had three skips from them over the past year. All dropped off and collected on the correct date and very competitively priced. Highly recommended
