The Dangers of DIY Rubbish Clearance

DIY Waste Removal | The Risks

Lifting and Loading

Most people won’t have a problem handling everyday rubbish like cardboard boxes and full bin bags. However, when it comes to the rubbish removal of large and heavy items, like furniture, appliances and renovation waste, you must consider the risks.

Improperly lifting and carrying heavy items can result in painful and long-lasting injuries. So, before choosing to take bulky waste to the tip yourself, think:

• Do you know how to properly lift and carry heavy items?

• Are you strong enough to do so?

• Are you capable of lifting, loading and unloading everything you need to dispose of?

• Do you have any previous injuries or physical conditions which could be exacerbated by heavy lifting?

It is also important to consider the above before arranging skip hire in Stratford because you will need to load the skip yourself.

Regulations

When dealing with certain types of waste, there are legal regulations that must be followed. Hazardous materials, such as chemicals, asbestos and electrical items, require specific waste removal methods, covering handling and disposal, to ensure environmental and public safety.

As such, if you opt for DIY rubbish removal to dispose of hazardous waste, you must make sure you know exactly how and where to dispose of certain items. Failure to handle hazardous waste properly can result in health, safety and environmental risks as well as legal consequences.

Recycling

Another danger of DIY rubbish clearance is improper waste segregation. Different types of waste must be separated and disposed of accordingly to comply with waste management regulations and promote recycling efforts.

Without the proper knowledge and experience, it's easy to mix different waste streams together, leading to contamination and hindering recycling processes.
