​What are 40 yard roll-on roll-off skips most commonly used for in Edinburgh?

​A 40-yard roll-on roll-off (RoRo) skip is a large waste container that provides a substantial capacity for waste disposal in Edinburgh. A 40-yard skip is typically used for heavy-duty and large-scale projects due to its size and capacity. Here are some of the most common uses for a 40-yard RoRo skip:

Construction and Demolition Sites: These 40-yard RoRo skips are commonly seen on construction and demolition sites where large volumes of construction waste need to be managed. This includes materials like timber, plasterboard, asbestos, cardboard and packaging and other construction waste streams.

Industrial Facilities: Manufacturing plants and industrial facilities often use 40-yard roll-on roll-ff skips for disposing of industrial waste, including asbestos waste, cardboard, and other large and bulky materials.

Commercial Renovations: During extensive renovations of commercial properties, such as office buildings, shopping centers, or hotels, a 40-yard RoRo skip is often used to handle the disposal of old fixtures, furniture, and renovation waste.

Large-Scale Clearouts: 40-yard skips are ideal for clearing out large spaces like warehouses, factories, or other commercial areas when items, equipment, or debris need to be removed.

Landscaping and Construction Land Clearing: In landscaping and land clearing projects, 40-yard RoRo skips are used to dispose of large quantities of green waste such as tree branches, and other debris.

Events and Festivals: During major events or festivals, these skips can efficiently manage the substantial amount of waste generated by attendees, including general waste and packaging materials.

Municipal Waste Collection: Municipalities may employ 40-yard RoRo skips for municipal waste collection programs, especially in areas where there's limited access to regular waste collection services.

Recycling and Waste Processing: Some recycling facilities or waste processing centers use these large skips to collect recyclable materials, scrap, and other waste materials for processing.

Environmental Cleanup Projects: In environmental cleanup efforts, such as post-natural disaster cleanup or environmental remediation, 40-yard roll-on roll-off skips are used to handle the removal of large debris and contaminated materials.

Film and TV Productions: The entertainment industry may use 40-yard RoRo skips for waste disposal on large film and television production sets.

It's important to remember that while 40-yard roll-on roll-off skips offer significant capacity, they also have weight limits. Proper loading and adhering to local waste disposal regulations are essential to ensure safe and responsible waste management in the Edinburgh area.

​Which types of waste should not be placed in a 40 yard roll-on roll-off skip?

These waste types typically include:
​
Hazardous Waste: Items such as asbestos, paint or paint cans, solvents, oils, batteries, gas cylinders, pesticides, medical waste, or any other substances classified as hazardous or toxic.
Electrical and Electronic Equipment (WEEE): Items like fridges, freezers, televisions, computers, monitors, fluorescent tubes, or any other electronic devices that contain hazardous components.
Waste Liquids: Liquids such as oils, solvents, chemicals, adhesives, or any other liquid waste should not be disposed of in a skip.
Plasterboard: There are specific rules regarding the disposal of plasterboard due to its potential to release harmful gases when combined with certain waste materials.
Waste Tyres: We do not allow the disposal of tyres in skips due to their bulky nature and potential for environmental harm.
Asbestos: Asbestos-containing materials are highly regulated due to their hazardous nature, and special procedures and disposal methods are required for their handling.
Waste Batteries: Batteries, including car batteries and household batteries, should not be placed in a skip due to the risk of leaks and environmental contamination.
Fluorescent Tubes: These contain small amounts of mercury and can be disposed of directly by contacting us.
​
Overloaded Skips: You may incur extra costs if the skips are above the legally permitted weight.
