NEED SKIP HIRE IN EXETER? WE SHARE OUR TOP TIPS FOR THE BEST WAY TO MAXIMIZE THE SPACE IN YOUR SKIP.
Learning how to pack your skip to make the most of the space is important. Whether its a good clear out at home or the office read our top tips for the best way to pack your skip efficiently. By following our useful tips you can make the best use of the space you have, minimize the number of collections you need, and best of all spend less money on disposing of your waste.
LET’S CHECK WHAT CAN AND CAN’T BE LOADED
One of the first things to think about is what you actually can or can’t include in your skip. There are some items which are completely unacceptable such as paint and asbestos etc. So bear that in mind before you start or you may find yourself having to unload and remove items from your skip which is a waste of time for everyone.
LET’S GET STARTED! HEAVIEST ITEMS GO IN FIRST
So lets start with the heaviest items first. Lay heavy flat items first to form a nice solid base for the rest of your rubbish. Then you can start to load the rest with the biggest, heavy and awkward shaped items. You can then use all the other remaining space around the skip (including the corners) with the smaller items.
SQUISH THE SMALLER ITEMS AS MUCH AS YOU CAN
For smaller items try to squash them as much as possible. Things such as cardboard boxes can be broken down and wedged in any gaps you have ensuring you sue up all the space available in your skip. Make sure you push the smaller items down as far as you can to stop too much movement or to stop things from blowing out.

Courageous Cory’s story really touched us and we were more than happy to help the family with the donation of a skip. A small act of support for an amazing family and a truly inspirational little boy.
Below is a bit of history about Cory along with a link to their Facebook page and fundraiser to improve their home for Cory’s safety and wellbeing. This brave family need all the support they can get and are immensely grateful for all the help they receive. This is a truly worthwile cause and just a little help can change their quality of life.
Cory’s Story
Cory is 7 years old from Brixham in Devon. He was born with moderate to severe hearing loss and had his first set of hearing aids at 9 weeks old. All was well until at 5 months old he started having Infantile Spasms, a rare type of epilepsy. The usual drugs didnt work and he lost all of his developmental skills within a week of being at the hospital. He even lost the ability to smile, couldnt move and would cry a lot.
The Doctors didnt know why the drugs werent stopping the seizures and his Mum noticed he wasn’t looking at things anymore. He was then diagnosed with Cortical Visual Impairment and was registered blind before his first birthday. A deafblind baby.
The drugs failed to ease the epilepsy and Cory was left with severe learning difficulties and very limited mobility. He became extremely tactile and defensive and wouldn’t let anything touch his hands. The world was very scary and frightening. and because he didn’t know what was being fed into his mouth he also developed severe food aversion. After many years of his mum and the school trying to encourage him to eat orally, the decision was made for him to have a gastrostomy tube (PEG) fitted.
What does the future hold for Cory?
There is still no formal diagnosis yet. Cory is part of two genetic studies which have yet to find a cause after many years of waiting.
His Mummy says, “he is a very unique little boy and loves life!”
Just4Children is trying to raise monies for urgent and vital adaptions to Cory’s home to improve the quality of his life.
Just4Children is passionate about the relief of sickness & preservation of good physical & mental health of children & young people under 25 years resident in the United Kingdom & Ireland by providing & assisting in the provision of services & grants to enable them to obtain their medical needs.
Please follow the link to their Facebook page and just giving page where you can also help improve the quality of life for this beautiful little boy and his family.
The family need help modifying their home. The proposed extension would greatly improve the quality of life for Cory and the family. As Cory is getting older and heavier, a ground floor bedroom and wet room with hoist will mean that they won’t have to carry him up and down the stairs and lift him in and out of the bath.
A storeroom for all of Cory’s equipment will mean more space for the family and a purpose built sensory room will provide Cory with a safe area to explore and seek out stimulation.
