Skip bags vs. Traditional skip hire

 
Hippobag skip bag collection

The simple skip bag solution to the stress of skip hire!

Why are more and more people choosing HIPPOBAGs over traditional skip hire?

So you’ve finally got round to ripping out the old kitchen and getting a brand new one. DIY and home improvements are a lot of fun and the final project is very rewarding, who doesn’t love a brand new kitchen? The last thing you want to worry about is waste removal.

Luckily, rubbish removal needn’t be stressful and rack up expensive rental fees. Save money on skip hire with HIPPOBAG skip bags. A HIPPOBAG is a simple way to manage your waste, while avoiding a trip to the tip and doing your bit for the environment. (We measure the waste we collect and on average we recycle over 90% of it, including the skip bag itself!)

Buy the skip bag from any of our hundreds of stockists around the country. It comes flat-packed, so it can wait in your shed or garage until the work begins. Bad weather holding up your progress? You don’t pay rental fees, you only pay for a collection when you call us and are ready. It’s that simple.

Our skip bags are flexible, so no paying for wasted space. They are perfect for segregating waste if you have any plasterboard for removal. To find out more about our plasterboard recycling service here.
