Understanding Your Rubbish
Before diving into specific options it is important for you to understand the type and volume of rubbish you’re dealing with. We help you with this by tailoring a solution based on your specific requirements. We partner with you to provide the best waste management services in the UK.
- Categorise your waste: Separate general waste, recyclables (like paper, cardboard, and plastic bottles), and hazardous materials (like paint, batteries, and electrical appliances) as each requires different disposal methods.
- Estimate the volume: Knowing the approximate volume (in cubic metres) is crucial. Online volume calculators can help here. Like this one
- Consider accessibility: Think about your driveway space, street access, and any potential challenges loading the rubbish.

We cover this in more detail here (using Skip Hire in London) as an example to help inform you further. Got a question? Just ask us!

Ok – So Which One Do I Actually Need?
- Not sure about the volume or type of waste?
- Man and Van: A good choice if you’re unsure about the exact volume or have a mix of waste types, including bulky items like furniture or garden trimmings.
- Skip Hire: Opt for Skip Hire if you have a large volume of mostly similar waste, like construction debris or garden waste from a major landscaping project. Estimating the volume beforehand helps us to help you choose the right skip size.
- Time constraints and heavy lifting involved?
- Man and Van: Ideal if you’re pressed for time and want a hassle-free experience. The professionals handle everything from loading to disposal, saving you time and effort.
- Skip Hire: Consider this option if you have the time and manpower to load the skip yourself. Be mindful of the physical demands of loading heavy items, especially for larger projects.
- Considering cost and budget?
- Man and Van: Often more cost-effective for smaller waste volumes or specific items like furniture removal. However, the cost can vary based on the amount of waste and distance travelled.
- Skip Hire: Potentially cost-effective for large volumes, but factor in permit costs (if applicable) and disposal fees based on weight.
- Environmental concerns?
- Man and Van: A reputable Man and Van service prioritises responsible waste disposal, ensuring your rubbish ends up in the right recycling or disposal facilities.
- Skip Hire: Choose a skip hire company that prioritises responsible waste management and offers recycling options for specific materials whenever possible.
