Skip Hire in Coventry

Royal Leamington Spa is perhaps one of the most well-known towns in the Coventry area. Leamington Spa is facing a bit of a crisis, though, as it is one of the towns that will be hit by Warwick councils need to reduce its spending. In 2014, the Council announced it was axing 600 jobs as part of a bid to save £92m, but this new raft of cuts are aimed at it saving another £67m by 2020. Resident’s fear that the local authority will look at downsizing such services as waste disposal as part of these measures. This may affect the provision of services in this area or even the closure of one or some of the nine household waste recycling centres in the area including Princes Drive in Leamington Spa. But, don’t worry as TopSkips are here to help you to remove all kinds of waste, whether it be domestic or commercial, with our skip hire in Leamington Spa service.

Nuneaton is one of the largest towns in Coventry, with a population of over 81,000. It probably comes as no surprise then that the town’s recycling centre, Judkins, is one of the best used in the area. Currently, Judkins is not set up for use by transit vans or larger vehicles, or vehicles over 6 foot in length. Warwickshire County Council have also just introduced a ‘pay as you throw’ charge for those who want to drop off large amounts of commercial or chargeable domestic waste. Prices will vary depending on the amount of waste and what it is, but locals fear that this will lead to more cases of fly-tipping. However, TopSkips has experience of working with local councils to ensure that all waste is removed efficiently and is able to provide a wide range of different skip sizes to suit all of your hiring needs.

Rugby Borough Council recently faced a bit of a dilemma when they discovered that they were making two to three collections per day of waste from their town bins which equalled a massive 51,100 waste collections a year. This was putting quite a strain on their budget, and also on their waste disposal infrastructure. Their response to this has been to install 56 of their traditional bins with 23 Bigbelly smart stations – and has made a saving of 97% with only 1,509 waste collections a year now needed. This is a great way of tackling waste disposal and shows how smart we are all now becoming with our waste, something that TopSkips is proud to be part of. We have worked closely with over 100,000 customers in the last 13 years to ensure that we remove waste in an efficient and highly effective way with as little impact on the environment as possible.

Warwick District Council has quite a focus on recycling and recently signed up to the MetalMatters communication campaign in a bid to increase the amount of metal that householders were prepared to recycle. The MetalMatters initiative was funded by the metal packing industry and is estimated to have cost about 29p per household. Through the use of leaflets, householders in Warwick were educated about how metal packaging is recycled and what happened to it once it had been collected. The Warwick District Council were delighted to see that the amount of metal being recycled rose by 28% after the campaign had ended. Recycling levels are something that we at TopSkips are concerned with, and we ensure that all the facilities for waste disposal we use are licenced and that up to 90% of the waste we deal with is either recycled or reused.

Perhaps most famous for being the birthplace of the playwright William Shakespeare, Stratford-Upon-Avon is a small market town whose town economy now relies on the influx of tourists, but this large number of people also brings with it another issue – litter. Obviously, the council is committed to keeping the area as clean and litter free as possible and operates various litter picking services. As a company, TopSkips is well used to working with local boards and governors to ensure that waste is removed in an efficient and effective way, having little impact on the local environment as possible.
