getting rid of rubbish

[andyscooter]

gave the garage a good clear out today

well sort of im now left with a load of shit in the doorway as cant get rid (managed to shut it)

its too big/messy for the car

pick ups and vans are not allowed on the local tips got a few mates with them

cant hire a van as need a permit and takes ten weeks to sort so cant really hire a van for ten weeks

skips are expensive


council do a bulk collectio but its 10 quid an item
i have about 20 items

so besides flytipping it what do i do


tldr council are a bunch of robbing gits

Ring the local gypsies travellers scrap collectors. Suprising what a lot of them are happy to take away to their secret storage sites.

[Bloggsy]

if there is any metal put it by your front gate I do and the local pikeys appear from nowhere and take it

[andyscooter]

only good bits are the ends of a bench and two pressure washers

rest is crap like extra loft insulation but has got damp
some laminate flooring but is warped due to the cold

a trolly jack that doesnt work

an old push chair with three wheels

some drawers with no bases (fell out with tools in due to cold dampness)
carpets that were on the floor

and a box of general crap

garage sprung a leak during the winter so ruined a lot of good stuff with damp

Freecycle / freagle it.

To get rid of junk put good things with bad things.

For example when I got rid of 'computer parts' the good thing was a Belkin SATA adapter.

It came with about 2000floppy disks, an ancient IDE scanner and a windows NT laptop.

Put it in rubble sacks (available from all DIY stores, a bit thicker than normal bin bags, put it in your car and make a few trips to the tip?

what's wrong with that?

I'm renovating a house and rather than paying for a skip I do this most weekends.

[bren_9311]

I have just done this too, but hired a skip, filled it to the top with rubbish like actually rubbish and various household stuff i don't need in my new flat.

Came back from a friends house two days later and it was almost empty! Wish i got a smaller skip!

I have loads left though so i'll just be dumping it there is a fly tipping site in a industrial estate behind my house, Its weird what people throw away.

Is it still classed as fly tipping if you don't use transport and just carry the stuff down or is it just littering?

Assuming that your car doesn't have a towbar and you don't have access to a trailer?

My local tip won't have vans on without permits (or indeed twin axle trailers) but normal car and single axle trailers are fine. I have never emptied my mates transit van full of rubbish into my trailer outside the gates and driven it in

[stevo as b4]

I should really make more effort with metal stuff to re-cycle/weigh it in, but so far I've put old car parts, broken lawnmower engines, and bits of broken motorbike into black bags and just thrown them into my general waste bin.

[stinkwheel]

Get a permit for a mates pickup/trailer/van for the skip site.

Takes my local tip about 3 days to send me a permit out.

It's great because they come running out giving it "You can't bring that in here." then you slap them round the chops with a council letterheaded permit.

The other classic funny one is to take it all down in the van, park the van outside then transferr all your crap, a bit at a time, into your car and repeatedly drive in with it. They live by the rules so they die by the rules.

The single most fuckwitted thing I've ever had happen to me at a skip site was them refuse to allow me to walk in with a washing up bowl of used engine oil (I had just changed the oil out of the enfield when I was on my UK tour and had gone to a designated oil disposal site for that exact reason). They would only let me in if I was riding the bike, not walking. I shit you not, they made me ride 3 metres on the bike with a bowl of hot, used sump-oil balanced on my knees.

They sit in a little portakabin next to a dump site all day, you're surprised?

To the OP: Rent an SUV if you think you might get past their hired goons without needing a council permit.

Or just get the damn permit.

permits take ten weeks could walk there with every item before it would arrive

some bits wont fit in the car so cant do that

will drop the metal and pressure washers outside today see if the pikeys are about

also have an old 70s push bike that was given to me to do up but havnt got time so that will be left outside

Get some old blankets in the car and do a few trips?

Stick a 'please take' sign on anything you're leaving out - best not to encourage people randomly nicking stuff from others, as so often happens.

[panrider_uk]

I just got one of these https://www.hatchbag.co.uk

Mainly for the dog but also to keep the back of the car in good nick.

Not cheap (but then neither are skips) but a good quality item.

ive done the temp permit to our local tip before, it only took about 2 weeks for the permits to arrive - then use your mates van?

or do like we do - use your car an take it the tip


if its burnable we shove it all in the log burner

[DrDonnyBrago]

Rubble sacks ---> boot of car ----> take to dump -----> refill and repeat

[Andy_Pagin]

Buy hard top Series Landrover, it's a van with near infinite crap capacity, except it has seats in the back, so it's a car. So up yours mr. rubbish-dump recycling centre Hitler.

Council tips aren't the only places that take rubbish. Look in the book to see if your local area has a transfer station. I think we pay 90 quid a ton. Any heavy items take to the tip in your boot, light and bulky take to the transfer station.

I took an old toilet to the tip once and they have a rule about only bringing one item of bathroom furniture a week. The guy claimed that the toilet was 2 items and that I needed to take the cistern off and bring that in next week.
I played dumb and said I did know how so he spent 10 minutes trying to undo the rusty bolts on a piss covered toilet before getting hacked off and chucking the whole thing in a skip.
