FEL Skip: Difference between revisions

The [[Front End Loader Bin]] or [[FEL Skip]] is primarily used in the UK compressible wastes such as [[Cardboard]] and [[Residual Waste]]. They are constructed of metal and remain at the waste producers' site, being emptied on site  via a dedicated [[FEL Lorry]]. This type of skip is distinct from the [[REL Skip]] and [[Skip]]s for [[Construction and Demolition Waste]] which are separately listed on WikiWaste. The choice of whether to use an [[FEL Skip]] or [[REL Skip]] is often a function of the type of system that the waste collection company uses in a geographical area, and/or the space and accessibility on the waste producers' site. In addition, [[REL Skips]] generally are available in larger sizes. The step from a [[Wheelie Bin]] to a [[FEL Skip]] or [[REL Skip]] is a function of the amount and type of the waste to be handled, the space available, and the economics of several [[Wheelie Bin]]s vs a single [[FEL Skip]] or [[REL Skip]].
