What can you put in our skips?

Ah, the eternal question: what can you toss into a skip? Imagine your skip as a hungry but somewhat picky pet. It happily gobbles up household items, garden waste, and construction materials. But offer it a mattress, asbestos, or large electricals, and it’ll turn up its metaphorical nose. Sofas? They’re a bit like trying to fit a giraffe in a Mini—possible, but usually not advisable. If you’re curious about the finer points of skip diets, take a gander at our guide on what you can and can’t put in a skip. It’s as enlightening as it is entertaining!

Skip Permits in Selkirk

In Selkirk, skip permits are like those mysterious artefacts you find in the local museum—essential yet often misunderstood. If you’re popping your skip on private land, congratulations, you’ve got the golden ticket! But if it’s going to rest on public land, you’ll need a skip permit. It’s not an Indiana Jones quest, but it does take a few days and a small fee. Fear not, though—GoSkip takes care of all the paperwork with the local council, so you can focus on more exciting things, like what to put in the skip. And if your street is graced with controlled parking, a parking suspension may be in your future. We can guide you, but a chat with the council is in order.

What happens to your waste?

Once your waste leaves Selkirk, it embarks on a journey of transformation akin to a caterpillar becoming a butterfly—except a bit less glamorous. Most of it gets sorted and recycled, potentially coming back as something useful, like a recycled park bench you might rest on after a long walk. In short, your waste is going places (literally and metaphorically). Curious about this magical process? Look no further than our guide on what happens to waste after skip hire. It’s the story of waste with a happy ending!
