Things that you Should not Throw in Regular Skip Bins


Hello everyone. Today I am going to tell you basic things that you should not throw out in skip bin.
In past, people don’t pay much attention to how and where the garbage should be disposed as very few materials were inorganic in nature and would eventually break down on their own. But with machines and electronic items becoming common, the problem of garbage disposal started. While loading any skip bin, keep in mind following things that should not be thrown into the garbage can.





·         Kitchen cleaning chemicals and liquids:
Never dispose kitchen cleaning chemicals like dishwashing liquid, sprays, paint and polish.

·         Car batteries:
Car battery contains other metals and acids that are hazardous if exposed with regular waste items.

·         Flammable and Explosive material:
Don’t dispose fire extinguisher or other toxic materials in skip bins. Read instructions on the toxic material on how it should be disposed.

·         Fiberglass:
Disposing off fiberglass insulation in skip bin is not allowed. It should be safely removed by a professional and then disposed off according to the instructions.

·         Poison:
Don’t dispose poison bottles in regular skip bins.

·         Heavy metals:
Heavy metals cause radioactive rays and result in environmental pollution. Therefore, it is unhealthy and unsafe to dispose it in garbage can.

·         Electronic devices, cars, computers:
Don’t dispose any heavy electronic device like computer or TV or car tires and any other furniture item like mattresses.
