At the heart of Sheridan Skips’ mission lies a commitment to cost-effectiveness, environmental responsibility, and active community involvement. The last few months have again proven the need for community upliftment here in the North West of the United Kingdom.

Sheridan Skips and Cash for Kids: Supporting Southport Together

This quarter, we were proud to partner with Cash for Kids Greater Manchester in their heartfelt efforts to aid the Southport community following recent tragic events.

Cash for Kids reached out to local primary schools and anti-knife crime organisations, ensuring that 100% of donations went directly to where they were needed most—funding mental health resources, counselling, and providing bleed control cabinets, kits, and training.

Sheridan Skips is honoured to work alongside such a fantastic organisation, and we are happy to support their projects to give back to the local community.

The impact of this collaboration highlights the strength of community spirit, and we are incredibly proud to support Cash for Kids in their mission to make a difference. If you feel moved to contribute, donations can still be made directly at hitsradio.co.uk/southport. Together, we can continue to provide vital support and resources to those who need it most.

Skip Stacking Goes Viral: The Importance of Level Loads

Recently one of our social media posts gained unexpected fame, racking up thousands of likes and plenty of laughs! The post featured a photo of an impressively overfilled skip.

While we all enjoyed the humour, it brings to light an important reminder: level your loads. Overstacking skips can create significant safety hazards, from debris falling out to skips becoming too heavy to lift safely. Additionally, it can lead to additional costs for our customers, as overfilled skips often require extra handling or even a second skip. Our drivers will not transport a skip that looks like the one in the post.

At Sheridan Skips, we prioritise safety and efficiency in all our operations. So, while we appreciate the creativity, let’s keep those loads level and safe. Properly filled skips ensure smooth, cost-effective waste management, allowing us to continue providing the top-notch service you expect from us.

If you haven’t seen the viral post yet, or you don’t follow us on social media, make sure you check out our Facebook page.

Community Upliftment: The Sheridan Skips Way

We’ve been busy bees this quarter, spreading a little Sheridan Skips love around our community, the only way we know how! We surprised Basically Cheer with an 8-tonne skip to help with their big renovation. They are a not for profit Health & Wellbeing hub that offers a range of enriching activities to communities in Burnley. You should have seen their faces light up! Our friendly driver Elliot dropped it off, and the Cheer team couldn’t have been happier. It’s moments like these that remind us why we love what we do.

Additionally, Sheridan Skips played a key role in the success of the Briercliffe Festival. Despite challenging weather conditions, our contribution of 8-yard skips helped maintain the event grounds and facilitated efficient clean-up operations. This involvement aligns with our dedication to environmental responsibility and community support. We take pride in our ability to contribute to the smooth running of local events and look forward to future opportunities to engage with and support our community.
