When it comes to clearing out waste, many people ask the same question: Should I hire a skip, or would a man & van service be better? Both options can help get rid of unwanted rubbish, but depending on the size of your job, your budget, and the space you have available, one might be a much better fit.
At NE Wasteaways, we provide both skip hire and man & van rubbish removal in the North East, so we know exactly when each works best. Let’s break it down.
When Skip Hire Works Best
Skip hire is a popular choice for:
- Longer projects where waste builds up over time (e.g. renovations).
- Jobs with a predictable amount of waste.
- Customers who have private land to place the skip on.
However, skips can be restrictive:
- You need a permit if it’s placed on a public road.
- You pay for the skip size, even if you don’t fill it.
- Certain items (like mattresses, fridges, and tyres) can’t go in a skip.
Why Choose Man & Van Rubbish Removal?
For many households and businesses, a man & van service is the easier, faster, and often cheaper option. Here’s why:
- No permits needed – we arrive, load up, and go.
- Pay for what we take – you’re not stuck paying for unused skip space.
- Labour included – we do the heavy lifting, saving you the effort.
- Same-day service available – ideal for quick clearances.
- Flexible collections – perfect for single items, garden waste, or full house clearances.
With man & van rubbish removal, you only pay for what’s collected. That makes it one of the most cost-effective options for homeowners, landlords, and businesses alike.
