Another way to make your task easier is to ensure you are filling the skip in a strategic way. If you have large items to dispose of, such as furniture, it will usually be more efficient to put them in first. This will give you a better idea about how much space you have left over for smaller items of waste. Awkwardly-shaped items should also be put in first. This is because you can then fill in the gaps and spaces with smaller pieces of rubbish. As a result you will be able to fit more in.
