Our Rolling Skip Policy...
In Autumn 2013 we introduced our Rolling Skip Policy, this is something that happens on most sites but we believe needs explanation & clarification.
When you have a bathroom renovated you will need approximately 2/3s of a 6 yard skip within the first few days. During the following 4 or 5 weeks you will need the other 1/3 but most of the rubbish is packaging towards the end. This skip sits on your drive, or outside your house, for the duration of the works.
This makes no sense. It is in the way and ugly, it is bad business for the skip company and vulnerable to being filled or looted.
So, we have a rolling skip policy. On day one you get your skip and over the following days, we will fill two thirds of it with your bathroom, and the other third will be rubbish from the last job.
The skip is then collected as soon as it is full (usually after the first week) and is no longer in the way, etc..
Any rubbish generated by your job after the skip has gone is then stored and when we start the next you, your rubbish will go in the next skip.
This is actually fairly standard practice but it is not unknown for a client or neighbour to question rubbish being loaded into a skip from, what looks like, a passing van. If the van is not ours and the man loading the skip is not in our uniform, then it is a passing van and feel free to question them! Also it is possible that the rubbish in the skip is easily identifiable as not the current clients (avocado suite for example) and this can lead to skip anxiety.
The point of the open policy is that you all know what we are doing and why!
