I have for 2 years now and i love it too but only thing i still hate is blocking main roads and having people in cars staring at me haha other than that its good
do you tell them don't over fill the bin, don't take it tell them take most it off, I drive a skip bin truck and driving a Bobcat in the yard only small business over 10 years I drive a 8 tonne truck, I told the customers you need to take most of it and no asbestos if was a building site if was a asbestos they must wrap it up in black plastic
@@peterbrown1968 if I pull up to a bin and its overloaded with lots of little stuff that I cant just pull off myself ill keep driving and have the customer informed that they need to make the bin level..when the company i work for was doing well (about to go under any day now ) every single person that ordered a bin was told to have the bin level and given a list of things that we will not take and they would still overload it just to take it off again. People will try and get away with whatever they can these days
@@holdenfan4513 I have seen a video on CZcams I think it was in the UK he picked up the garbage bin he reversed down the driveway and he tipped all the rubbish back out then he drives off, it was so funny you should find it you will have a laugh, my boss is selling the business
He lifted it heigh for clearance and the wood isn't to hold weight it's to stop the support rollers which try to stop truck lifting the cab and the wood is to stop them digging into the ground
I'm a skip bin driver...
Best job ever, been doing it for about 8 years.
I have been working with skip bins over 10 years and i love it
I was truly amazed!!

is each bin 10m3 each ?
No, these were 5m3.
Does the top skip have chains on it?
I can't remember. He was very skilled though.
No, the chains are only at the bottom skip bins, I’d be paranoid to hit any power lines
