If you are searching for reliable and affordable skip hire in Surbiton, look no further than Epsom Skip Hire. We have been proudly serving homeowners, builders and businesses for years, delivering skips of all sizes to projects big and small. But as much as we love the everyday jobs, like clearing out lofts, tackling garden renovations and managing building waste, every now and then we come across something a little different.
Over the years, we have heard about some of our more creative customers in Surbiton who find ways to use skips that go far beyond the norm. Some are within the rules but still outside of the box. In the spirit of fun, we thought we would share a few of the strangest ways that some people have used skips.
Don’t take things too seriously and don’t try these at home!
If you come from Surbiton and would like to use skip hire for a traditional clearance, please get in touch with us.

The Backyard Swimming Pool
Yes, really. An enterprising customer decided to line the skip with waterproof sheets and fill it with water during heatwaves to create Surbiton’s most unconventional paddling pool! While we wouldn’t recommend using skip hire to create personal spas, we admit this was a refreshing use of a large metal container.
Stick to local swimming pools in the Surbiton area and use us for skip hire only if you need to manage waste materials!
Who needs the Odeon when you have a skip and a projector? Some students turned an old skip into a pop-up cinema complete with beanbags and a white sheet for a screen. We are unsure if the acoustics were anything to write home about, but it certainly made for a memorable movie night for these young creatives.
Surbiton has many nearby cinemas that are far safer, so use a skip hire service for waste management but for nothing else!
The Urban Garden
One customer asked if they could use their skip to temporarily house a community vegetable patch. As long as you do not mix in compost with concrete rubble, we would say go for it if you actually own the skip! A skip full of soil or strawberries may just be the greenest use of skip hire that we have seen yet.
While we can’t supply a skip for you to create a garden, Epsom Skip Hire can rent you a unit for a garden clearance!
We have seen skips used as a platform for art installations in creative corners of the UK. A budding artist looking to make a statement can use a skip as an ironic but effective canvas. It amazes us that skip hire could be part of a modern art world.
But, to be honest, we would rather see our customers in the Surbiton area using skip hire for something more conventional.
At Epsom Skip Hire, we pride ourselves on offering more than just dependable skip hire services. We bring a little humour and flexibility to the job too. While we always ask customers to follow safety and legal guidelines, we are not opposed to a bit of imagination. If you have an idea that might be a little off the wall, give us a call. We have probably heard stranger!
But, if you need skip hire in Surbiton for a renovation or a clearance, this is where we have you covered. Contact us today for a quotation and get started – whatever you are planning!
