5 Reasons to Hire a Skip in 2026

As 2026 is well underway, the way we manage waste continues to evolve and one thing remains clear: hiring a skip is one of the smartest, most efficient ways to handle waste for your home, business or project. Sheridan Skips have been supporting homeowners, tradespeople and companies across Greater Manchester for years with reliable, same day skip hire and tailored waste solutions.

Whether you’re planning a big renovation, managing commercial waste, or simply clearing out your garden, here are five compelling reasons to hire a skip in 2026.

Cost-Effective Waste Management

Skip hire is one of the most cost-effective methods of disposing of large volumes of waste. Rather than paying per trip to a tip, you pay a single fee for delivery, hire duration and collection. With flexible hire periods and clear pricing, it’s easy to budget for your waste needs without surprises.

It’s Environmentally Responsible

Disposing of waste responsibly matters more than ever. When you hire a skip with Sheridan Skips, your waste isn’t just taken away it’s sorted and processed for recycling wherever possible. By reducing landfill impact and supporting recycling efforts, skip hire helps contribute to a greener future for Manchester communities.

Perfect for All Types of Projects

From home refurbishments and garden makeovers to commercial building work, skips are incredibly versatile. They handle a wide range of materials, including household waste, wood, bricks and garden clippings. Making them ideal for DIY jobs, construction sites and business clear-outs.

It Saves Time and Hassle

Skip hire takes the stress out of waste removal. Instead of making multiple trips to your local recycling centre or juggling DIY refuse runs, a skip arrives when you need it and stays for the duration of your project. With Sheridan Skips, you can even book same day delivery, making your clean-up process faster and smoother.

Choose the Right Size for Your Job

Every project is different , and so is the waste it produces. That’s why skip hire gives you options. From compact 2-yard skips perfect for small home clear-outs, to larger 12- or 16-yard skips for bigger renovations or commercial sites, you only pay for what you need. Our online Skip Selector makes choosing the right size easy, helping you avoid over-ordering and extra cost.
