There are as many types of skips for waste removal and recycling as you can imagine, but there are generally three main types which are 1) skips 2) ro-ro’s 3) enclosed skips.

The types of skips for waste removal which which most people are aware of when looking for skip hire are the the ones which builder’s use.  These can start from as small as 2 cu yds and rise to around about 16 cu yds.  For larger jobs and commercial waste we have the ro-ro’s (roll on, roll off) skips which start at 20 cu yds and rise to around 50 cu yds.  Enclosed skips are precisely what it says on the tin and are used for wastes that it’s better if they are kept dry and for hazardous wastes such as asbestos.  These can range in size from 8 cu yds upto 40 cu yds.

If a skip is to be cited on private land then there’s no problem with where it can be placed.  However, if the skip is to be placed on a public highway you will have to seek approval for this from the local authority who will provide you with a skip licence.  Ordinarily the skip hire company will do this for you but it’s always best to check with them  first and not to assume.

The skip licence allows you to have the skip placed in a designated place on the public highway which the local authority will have checked first.  The duration of the licence is usually two weeks which fits in with the length of time that a skip can be hired for.

At Todd Waste Management we will always ask you whether your skip is to be delivered onto private property or on the public highway and we’ll get the licence for you too.  So if you want skip hire York, skip hire Malton, skip hire Scarborough, skip hire Tadcaster, skip hire Selby, skip hire Boroughbridge, skip hire Northallerton, skip hire Ripon or practically anywhere else in North Yorkshire give us a call and we’ll be happy to help you with great service and great prices.

In instances where contaminated soils need to be removed from site, the historical method of doing so was to sample the undisturbed land, have chemically analysed and then build up a map of the areas of contaminated. Such analysis is normally presented in a site contamination report, from where lane remediation plan is designed to ensure the conamiantion is dealt with consistent with the contamination report.

We have just finished a contract for Persimmon Homes at Louth. This site differed in that heavy metal contamination was evident in a stockpile, though from the sampling it could not be determined where in the stockpile the contamination was or the quantity. As the stockpile was over 1000 cubic metres, you will appreciate the huge costs invovled should the old approach be taken and all the stockpile be remvoed as Hazardous. Over the last two months we have worked with Terra Consult and designed a solution for Persimmon, whereby we used an on site XRF handhled detector to sample every bucket load of soil and give an exact chemical composition of the soils within 90 seconds. The soil was then split and disposed of inaccordance with its composition, be it inert, non-hazardous or active.

The result was that the stockpile was sucessfully split, the contamianted soils disposed of in accordance with their exact composition and the site remediated quickly, efficiently and hugely cheaper than if the the old method of all the soils being classified as hazardous.

Whilst our area of operations has traditionally been North Yorkshire, this is a service that we can offer nationwide. Contamianted Land, Land Remediation, XRF detector, site clearance
