How Waste Skip Hire Can Benefit Your Projects
Effective waste management is crucial for any project, whether it’s a small garden clearance or a major construction development.
Waste skip hire has become an increasingly essential service across the UK, helping both homeowners and businesses manage their waste efficiently and responsibly. In this comprehensive guide, we’ll explore the benefits of skip hire services, how to choose the right skip, and why it’s crucial for project success.
What is Waste Skip Hire?
When the waste inevitably builds from a project, skip-hire is usually the best solution, in the form of temporary containers for collecting and disposing of various types of materials.
These containers come in different sizes, from small 2-yard skips perfect for garden clearances to large 12-yard containers suitable for major construction works.
At Towens, we offer a complete range of skips to accommodate all project types, ensuring efficient waste management solutions across beautiful Somerset and its surrounding areas.
Why Choose Waste Skip Hire Services?
Cost-Effective Waste Management
Skip hire provides a cost-effective solution for waste disposal, eliminating the need for multiple trips to waste transfer stations. Our competitive prices include delivery, collection, and waste processing, making it an economical choice for both domestic and commercial clients.
Environmental Sustainability
As a responsible skip hire company, we prioritise environmental sustainability in our operations. Through our own waste transfer station, we ensure maximum recycling rates, currently achieving 92% waste diversion from landfills. This commitment to sustainability helps reduce environmental impact and supports the circular economy, and you’ll know that your waste is being reused effectively with Towens, rather than heading to landfill.
Convenience and Time-Saving
Skip hire services offer unmatched convenience, allowing you to dispose of waste materials at your own pace. Whether you’re undertaking small domestic refurbishments or large renovations, having a skip on-site streamlines the waste management process.
Legal Compliance
Professional skip hire ensures compliance with waste management regulations. We handle all necessary permits for skip placement on public highways and ensure proper disposal of different waste types, including construction waste and general waste.

How to Choose the Right Skip Hire Services
Assess Your Project Requirements
Consider the type of waste you’ll be generating and the project duration. For garden clearances, smaller skips might suffice, while construction projects typically require larger containers. Our expert team can help determine the most suitable skip size for your needs.
Location Considerations
Your postcode and specific location requirements will influence skip placement options. We serve various areas across Somerset and provide guidance on permit requirements for public highway placement.
Waste Types
Understanding what can and cannot go into skips is crucial. While we accept most construction waste and general waste materials, certain items like hazardous waste such as asbestos require specialist disposal methods. If you’re unsure about what can or cannot go inside a skip, we’ve put this blog together to help you out.
