Helping Councils Keep Streets Cleaner During Gull Season

Seagulls and foxes can create real problems for waste teams at this time of year. Split sacks, exposed waste and littered streets all add pressure to collections, cleansing teams and local residents.

Our Seagull Proof Sacks are designed to help councils, local authorities and waste contractors keep bagged waste contained and streets cleaner.

They are heavy duty, high performing sacks, sealed to help protect the contents from gulls, foxes and other wildlife until collection.

Most of what we manufacture is bespoke and made to order, but we do keep stock available during peak periods when wildlife-related waste issues increase.

A Year-End Reminder for UK Councils

As the UK local authority financial year draws to a close on 31 March, many councils will be reviewing any remaining budget allocations.

We currently hold our highest stock levels of kerbside recycling bags available off the shelf for councils, allowing for quick fulfilment before the financial year ends.

If topping up recycling bag supplies is already on your list before year-end, our team would be happy to help:

Skip Bags: The Smarter Model for Modern Skip Hire

Spring renovation season is approaching fast and many skip hire companies are moving towards skip bags as a smarter alternative to traditional skips.

Why? Because bags are quicker to deliver, easier to uplift, and far more efficient to transport and dispose of. Fewer vehicle movements, reduced handling time, and lower operational costs all add up, especially during peak season.

For residents, the flexibility is a major win. Skip bags take up less space, can be positioned more easily, and offer a more cost-effective solution for smaller projects and DIY renovations.

At Sackmaker, we support this shift by working closely with skip hire partners to produce fully branded skip bags helping you reduce costs while increasing visibility on every job. From bespoke specifications to high-quality print, we make sure your bags work as hard for your brand as they do on site.

With demand about to surge, now is the time to future-proof your skip bag offering.
