Watch our guides to selecting the skip that suits your project
As a national skip hire company, TopSkips supply a wide variety of domestic and commercial skips in Leicester. Here are a few reasons why we are the number one choice for skip hire in Leicester:
Leicester is an unusual place as it is both a city and a unitary authority area that lies on the River Soar at the edge of the National Forrest.
Leicester City Council recently undertook a survey of residents to discover their views on the council’s proposals to introduce charges for bulky waste collections and the disposal of household DIY waste. As with other areas, Leicester currently has a free service where householders can request one collection of bulky waste per month – which costs the council £360,000 a year. If you live in Leicester and have a large amount of rubbish that you need removing, why not contact TopSkips to help you with the job instead?
Whether you live in urban Hinckley or further out in rural Melton Mowbray, TopSkips are the perfect choice to help you with your waste removal. We’ve been responsible for recycling nearly 1 million tonnes of waste since we started back in 2003, and have been providing a wide range of skip hire services in Leicester ever since. We can supply all sizes of skip from the smaller mini-skips right through to large builder skips and are leaders in the waste management market.
When you contact our experienced team in order to book your skip hire in Leicester, we will also assist you with your skip permit needs. We can book these for you through Leicestershire County Council, and we will make it clear to you right from the start how much this will cost. The cost will vary of course, depending on which area you are in and how long the skip will be on the road for. Leave it our expert hands, though, and we will make sure it is all sorted for you.
You can’t mention the name Melton Mowbray without mentioning the amazing pork pies that are produced there! This, along with the fact that this town is also one of the six homes of Stilton cheese, has led to it being christened the ‘Rural Capital of Food’. Food is one of the main contributors to the amount of waste we produce in the UK, and Melton Mowbray is one of the first areas to send food waste to a new £10 million anaerobic digestion plant. This is a process whereby the food waste is broken down to produce bio fertiliser for crops and generate electricity in for the national grid.
Other changes relating to waste in Melton Mowbray have been brought about due to the council’s desire to save £67000 a year. These changes include reducing the opening hours of the recycling and household waste site in the area and charging residents for the disposal of their non-household waste. We have worked with residents in Melton Mowbray for many years, and our knowledge of the local area has meant we can offer customers a better result and increased customer service.
Loughborough is the largest settlement in Leicester outside of the city of Leicester. Loughborough has one of the largest Universities in the country, and a team from the University were recently involved in developing a method of turning waste plastic into low-sulphur liquid transport fuel. Initiatives like this are things that really interest us as we count ourselves as an environmentally aware company who only use licence tipping facilities which allow us to recycle and re-use a high volume of waste including soil and hard-core.
Loughborough is actually pioneering in the field of waste recycling, with Biffa recently submitting a plan to Leicestershire County Council for the construction of an incinerator on the former Newhurst Quarry at Shepshed. The plans include a restoration scheme to protect the land and wildlife in the area. If the incinerator gets the go-ahead, it will be able to process up to 350,000 tonnes of waste as fuel and be able to generate enough power to power 66 homes.
Hinckley is traditionally a centre of the hosiery industry in the UK – the history of which can be seen in some of the exhibits at the Hinckley & District Museum. This creativity seems to have inspired a new generation of workers, with many small technology companies now being based here. This has led to the regeneration of the area, with lots of old buildings being transformed into offices and workspaces.
We are proud to act as a lifeline for companies in the Hinckley area, helping them with all their waste transport needs. Our customer service team can arrange permits, provide scrap metal removal, help with site clearances, provide waste disposal, and provide the best skip hire services in the Hinckley area.
The pretty market town of Market Harborough is in a rural part of South Leicestershire close to the Northamptonshire border. A branch of the Grand Union Canal terminates in the north part of the town and connects to the main canal near Foxton. Interestingly enough there are a larger number of smaller organisations with fewer than ten employees in Market Harborough than the rest of the UK.
Market Harborough is also one of the towns in the UK where you need to have a skip permit to put a skip on public property. At TopSkips we can help you with this as part of our booking process. We aim to provide first class customer service, with high-quality skips that are fit for your requirement, affordable and most importantly support the local community.
