IF Erik is impressed – then the customer should be too, according to new online comparison site www.skipcompare.com SkipCompare.com was founded by Northampton waste management company Waste Plan Solutions (WPS) in response to regular enquiries from clients about the best deals for finding a local skip hire firm that delivered the high level of service expected in the construction industry and those handling trade waste. Abigail Mosley Marketing Director of SkipCompare said: “Being a broker for skip hire firms wasn’t something WPS was keen to get involved with directly, and so we set up a designated online resource to handle enquiries. “Although anyone visiting the site to find skip hire firms should be able to find one in their area, all over the UK, we are keen to build up a comparison database to help them make the best decision about the company they choose. “So, we introduced Erik, who is the mascot of our Erik Rating Scheme, based on a 32-point check list that will help identify best practice in the industry.” The Erik Rating Scheme marks companies in terms of legal compliance, duty of care best practice, protecting the environment, health and safety values, quality systems, and innovation. A five-star rating means the company has reached exceptional standards and no company listed has achieved less than two stars, so no firm is listed that fails to meet the legal minimum requirement. Through SkipCompare.com customers can check out skip hire firms in their area, compare prices and services, and book a skip online, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The company will also provide waste transfer notes online after the skip has been collected so customers know their waste has been properly disposed of.
