GORILLA SKIP BIN  TIPS

KEEP AN EYE ON YOUR GORILLA SKIP LEVEL
Please be awesome, and don't pile your waste higher than the sides of the gorilla skip.
You could be charged extra money for an overweight bin or be asked to remove the excess waste.

KIDS AND GORILLA SKIPS DON'T MIX
Never allow children to play around or inside a skip.🛑 🖐 We can’t stress this enough! Never allow children inside a skip for any reason. When your bin arrives, tell your kids that it’s not a plaything.

KEEP AN EYE ON THE WEATHER
Keep an eye on the weather and be cautious on bad weather days 🌧 During a storm, light and medium-weight objects in your skip could be blown away. 😟 Secure any lightweight objects to prevent them from becoming dangerous projectiles.

GET COLLECTION READY
Before your Gorilla skip bin is collected, check that the access to the skip is clear. No vehicles can be blocking the skip bin. Also, make sure any security gates or fences are unlocked.

3 TIPS TO STOP ILLEGAL DUMPING IN YOUR GORILLA BIN SKIP

  1. LIGHT IT - Shining a security light onto your skip may deter them from this kind of nocturnal mischief; even better if you can use a motion-sensitive light.
  2. COVER IT - Covering your skip with a tarp is an excellent way to signal that it is off-limits.
  3. LOCATE IT - If possible, place your skip in your driveway or garden rather than leaving it on the street.

GORILLA SKIP REVIEWS

Communicated well before turning up right on time. Placed the bin exactly where I wanted it down my long driveway. Took it away on the assigned day with no fuss. 

Incredible experience with Green Gorilla and their skip bins. I ordered mine and arrived overnight. Ordered the collection months later and it was collected the following day. Compared to an experience with Waste Management I would never look back!!

When I contacted them about bin removal it was during level 4, was told that my bin would be picked up the first week of level 3 and they definitely kept to it. On the first day of level 3 and it's already been picked up, the driver was awesome, didn't take him long to get the truck in and remove the bin. Really polite and friendly too. Great work team keep it up.

Very happy with the Gorilla bins service. Easy to book, great customer service, great value, great delivery driver..put bin where I needed it no problems..fast easy collection and pleasant driver. Will use it again.
