Hiring a skip from Weston Skip Hire makes your life easier

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

Weston Skip Hire were recently contacted by a woman in Weston who wanted to clear out her mum's house. She explained that her mum was a real hoarder and would never dispose of anything. There were wheelie bins filled to the brim with tin cans and others that were filled with newspapers and magazines. Although very messy, the house was exceptionally clean. The tin cans had all been thoroughly washed before going into the wheelie bin, but the amount of rubbish in and around the property was quite frightening.

It would have been perfectly acceptable if the vast majority of the rubbish had been disposed of on a weekly basis by the usual methods, but for some reason, she kept saving the items and storing them on her Weston property. It was quite clear to the lady's daughter that nothing short of a hired skip would do. Apparently, her mum's habit of collecting such an enormous amount of rubbish stemmed from a genuine fear that by disposing of her rubbish in the bins and having them collected weekly, would have an extremely negative impact on the environment. The lady concerned was delighted when we explained that 95% of the waste materials collected by Weston Skip Hire would be recycled.

Getting that feel good factor with a skip in Weston

After just a few hours, the skip was filled with all manner of rubbish, and we were called to say that the skip was ready for collection. We can honestly say that in all our years of supplying skips, we have never seen so many tin cans in one place. All the rubbish was taken from the Weston property to be sorted and segregated at our dedicated waste recycling centre, and we now have another very satisfied customer. We also expect we will be supplying more skips to this customer as she still believes the local authorities do not recycle the waste they collect every week and we are not about to argue with her.

Where is Weston?

Weston is a pleasant looking village and civil parish in the North Hertfordshire district of Hertfordshire. The village of Weston stands on a plateau of high ground, about two miles south of the ancient town of Baldock, its nearest town, although Weston's post town is Hitchin, which is actually five miles to the west. The parish of Weston includes extensive rural areas as well as the village itself, including the hamlet of Hall's Green to the south-east of the village. At the northern end of the parish are the Weston Hills, where the plateau drops down to the southern edges of Baldock. The Weston Hills Tunnel carries the A505 Baldock bypass under the hills. The parish of Weston had a population of 1,035 at the 2021 census.

A little about Weston

Weston is known to be included in the Domesday Book of 1086, when it was described as having seventy-five households. Two priests were also mentioned, suggesting that Weston was already a Christian parish by this time. Weston also included the site where the legendary Knights Templar would later develop the town of Baldock in the 12th century. The northern tip of Weston parish was ceded to become the new parish of Baldock around that time. The concession was modest; the parish of Baldock originally had an area of just 158 acres, whereas the remainder of Weston parish had an area of 4,555 acres.

Holy Trinity Church in Weston

Holy Trinity Church stands on the south-eastern edge of Weston and dates back to the 12th century. The main part of Weston subsequently developed along Fore Street, Maiden Street and Damask Green Road, which meet at a small village green with a pond, about half a mile west of the church.

The giant of Weston

There is a local legend of a giant called Jack o'Legs, who is said to have lived in a cave in the area and stole from the shopkeepers in Baldock to give to the poor in Weston. On being caught and either mortally wounded or sentenced to death he asked to be allowed to shoot an arrow to indicate where he wanted to be buried. The arrow flew three miles to the churchyard at Weston. Stones and a sign in the churchyard still mark his supposed grave. The earliest documented reference to Jack o'Legs dates from 1521, but in a context suggesting it was already a well-known story.

Weston Windmill from a bygone age in Weston

Weston Windmill, also known as Lannock Mill, was built in 1860 to the west of Weston. It is sadly no longer operational, and has lost its cap, sails, and machinery. The surviving tower has been converted to other uses, but fortunately the bulk of this iconic windmill survives to this day.

Weston Road and the Village of Weston, both within Toronto, Canada, were named after the Hertfordshire village of Weston.
