Skip or trip?

Everyone is busy these days! More and more people are finding less and less time to do what they want in their free time as the cost of living crisis puts the squeeze on their pockets. Many are taking extra jobs or starting up an online venture as a way of bridging the gap between their pay packet and their outgoings. Hertfordshire is a reasonably affluent county, with towns such as Baldock ranking pretty high in the earning stakes, but even Baldock residents are feeling the pinch to their finances lately.

As a result, fewer of us feel we can justify the time and hassle of taking our waste materials to the local tip. Household recycling centres, as they are correctly called are a very useful amenity to have close to where you live. It is somewhere that you can take your waste materials for disposal, but there does seem to be a problem with them.

The issue a lot of people see with taking their waste to the local tip is that they are becoming more and more discerning about what they will or won't accept. Because of this, many people are now choosing to hire a skip, rather than make the trip to the tip. Some of these issues are looked at below:

What if my tip is too far from Baldock?

Although it may not be a huge distance from Baldock, Letchworth is where you will need to go to dispose of any waste materials you have accumulated at home. Now, this can be a bit of a pain if you have a busy schedule, or don't have access to a vehicle to transport the waste. The simple solution is to hire a skip that can be situated at your Baldock home. In short, the tip comes to you, rather than the other way around.

My tip opening times are not good for me

The opening hours for the local household refuse recycling centres may not be very convenient for you. Many people struggle to get to the tip during their opening hours. Worse still, recycling centres are open for very limited periods of time during the winter months. Again, a skip hire in Baldock would be the perfect solution.

What if my tip closes?

The closure of council run recycling centres has hit the news quite a few times over recent years. This means that you will undoubtedly have much further to go to dispose of your household waste materials. Hiring a skip for your home in Baldock is the most convenient way to get rid of all your waste materials in one fell swoop.

I don't know what they'll accept

Many people who visit a modern recycling centre have reported that they have been turned away because that particular centre doesn't have the ability or licence to accept the type of waste they want to get rid of.

The local tip is a world away from the tips we were used to a few years back. Now you have to have the right kind of waste for that particular skip. Some will not be able to accept rubble or hardcore, whereas others will be unable to take waste oil or any electrical item that contains gas, such as fridges or freezers. This can be a nightmare if you've driven miles, only to be turned away on your arrival. Hire a skip to avoid all this hassle for your property in Baldock. We will deliver the skip and remove it after the agreed period of hire. You are then free to enjoy a clutter free life, safe in the knowledge that our skip hire company will recycle the vast majority of your waste for you.

Our skip hire in Baldock service is a simpler solution, as we can tell you in advance what you can and can't place in the skip during the hire period, which eliminates all that stressful guess work.

The trip to the tip cost me dearly

Although one doesn't have to pay to use a household recycling centre, many people end up with a costly bill after their visit. Punctures are a very common complaint from visitors to these centres.

Huge thorns from garden waste and disguarded nails and screws are the usual culprits that have been dropped whilst the waste is being taken to the large skips on site. You could be faced with a costly tyre repair bill after a trip to the tip. No such concerns for the person who hires a skip for their Baldock property.

Domestic or commercial waste?

Another gripe we hear a lot is when customers take their rubbish to the tip in a van they own, have hired or borrowed for the job. The staff at recycling centres seems to assume that if you have a van, you are working in a trade and thus should have the relevant licence.

In truth, many people have a van for other non-business reasons. They may have dogs that get messy and smelly, so they use the van to ferry their furry friends around. They may have hired or borrowed a van specifically for the trip to the tip as they don't want to damage the interior of their car with loads of garden waste or dirty rubbish. Having a skip from us at your Baldock home circumvent this issue.

So, if you live in or around the Baldock area and want to offload a pile of unwanted waste, hiring a skip from us is the smart choice.

We deliver the skip, we can organise any permits that may be required if the skip has to be sited on a road outside your home, and we will collect the full skip when the hire period is up. What could be simpler? Do away with the stress and inconvenience and hire a skip for your Baldock home today!

Hiring a skip from Baldock Skip Hire versus the Sunday tip trip!

Stevenage Skip Hire sends all waste from Baldock back to our primary recycling plant in Stevenage.

It's an excursion we could all do without! We've worked hard all week and instead of breaking out the barbecue and a bottle of wine at the weekend, we end up loading the car with pile after pile of waste from the loft, garage or garden and head off to the local tip. It's hard work getting all that waste into one place as it is, but then trying to fit it into a family sized car can be a nightmare.

How many people have damaged the interior of their cars with sharp edges of rubbish or ended up with old paint spilling out of the pot, only to find the one solitary whole in the plastic sheet that is supposed to be protecting the upholstery. Rear window demisters are a frequent casualty of the dump trip too. It doesn't take much to break the fine wires stuck to the rear window and a stray, jagged piece of broken fence panel or cut tree branch can sever them in an instant.

The best solution all round is to give us a call at Baldock Skip Hire. We are a professional skip hire company who have been operating since 2005. Baldock Skip Hire are Environment Agency approved, so you know your household waste will be recycled in an environmentally aware manner.

Land fill, plastic and its disposal in Baldock

Getting rid of the rubbish at the weekend has been getting more and more of a chore over recent years. Long gone are the days of just tipping everything into the big hoppers at the local dump.

Nowadays we have to segregate everything, even then the operatives will want to look inside any boxes or bags to ensure we are disposing of the correct waste material for that particular hopper.

Recycling is key to waste disposal these days and residents of Baldock have plenty of opportunity to recycle bottles, jars, paper and clothing at various points in and around Baldock.

Sometimes though, that trip to the local dump simply cannot be avoided, but what happens to the waste that ends up there is changing since a recent ban on exporting twenty four types of waste into China. A government environmental scientist recently stated that a good deal of plastic should be buried in land fill sites ready to be mined at a later date and put to good use as the recycling process just could not keep pace with the amount of plastic being put to waste.

What Baldock residents need to know about the Chinese waste ban

Quite simply, China was the worlds largest importer of waste but that is now changing following the ban on importing this waste. The ban was seen as a huge win for environmental pressure groups, who said it would not only clean up China, but also force other countries to manage their own waste materials in a more responsible manner.

A few different ideas have been discussed but not followed up on. The European Union said it was considering a tax on plastics usage, the United Kingdom was looking to divert some of its waste to Southeast Asia, but they already have enough pollution issues owing to forest burning and do not want to invite more pollution. The United States of America has not discussed an alternative solution as yet but have asked China to lift its ban.

However, it really isn't all doom and gloom. The ban by China has paved the way for smart investors to get in on the recycling business. Baldock Skip Hire are at the forefront of waste recycling and will be happy to advise you on your waste disposal issues.
