What can you put in our skips?

Picture this: you've got a skip in your driveway, and you're ready to toss in everything but the kitchen sink. But hold on, let's talk about what can and can't go in there. Feel free to chuck in household items, garden waste, and construction materials. However, that old mattress you've been meaning to get rid of? Not so fast, it's a no-go. The same goes for asbestos, plasterboard, and large electricals—these items are skip-shy. Sofas can sometimes join the party, but you might want to check first (they're notorious for being space hogs). For more details on what you can and can't throw in, hop over to our guide. Remember, when in doubt, leave it out!

Skip Permits in Harwich

So, you're ready to hire a skip in Harwich, but where to put it? If it's going on your own land, congratulations, you're in the clear! However, if your skip's destined for public land, you'll need a skip permit. This isn't as daunting as it sounds—though it might take a few days and incur a small fee, GoSkip handles all the paperwork with the local council. Just sit back and relax. Now, if your street has controlled parking, you might also need a parking suspension. While we can offer advice, this is one part of the adventure you'll need to handle with the council. For all the nitty-gritty details, check out our ultimate guide to skip permits. Because who said bureaucracy can't be fun?

What happens to your waste?

Ever wondered where your waste goes after you bid it farewell? At GoSkip, we're big fans of recycling. The vast majority of what's tossed into our skips gets sorted and reborn as something new. Maybe your old newspapers will become part of a chic eco-friendly coffee table, or your garden waste will help fertilize a future Harwich flower show winner. The possibilities are endless!
