How To Fill A Skip Efficiently In Ten Minutes! TIME LAPSE

[@rosehughes599]

You can tell they are professionals cos they pack the skip, laying the pieces in piles rather than just throwing it in like I would do!

[@titan375484]

What a hard working team has cleaned up there!

[@johnpritchard2772]

Hello everyone! What a demolition team, with basic hard work to do the work and loading that huge skip too! very organised! Best wishes from Lincolnshire.

[@theoldstationrenovation]

Thank you very much and best wishes to you from south Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

[@philippaking1732]

More wonderfulness from the Old Station Reno. Thanks a bunch. Great to see Kitty get involved too. ❤🧡💛💚💙

Glad you enjoyed! Pixie soon ran off and settled in the caravan 🐱 😊

[@donbennington677]

It is surprising what can be packed in with a little care. Well done the team 👍

[@JOHNKIRBY1000]

I'm exhausted just watching it! Well done.

[@douglasburch2320]

What a brutal clean-up!! And you still have the first floor demolition!! Thanks for taking us along.

[@richdiddens4059]

Just be glad they didn't have to segregate the waste. I've been on jobs where the wood, metal, insulation, and sheet rock all had to be separated.

[@theoldstationrenovation]

Thank you very much for watching, we’re extremely grateful 😊

[@buffy5kt]

Wow! They made hard work look easy. Exciting to watch!!

[@acdallas6356]

So glad the demo guys were there to do this part of the job. I was afraid you were going to have to do it by yourselves and I anticipated multiple days of grueling work! The speeded up part of the video reminded me of ants!

[@niknoks6387]

I would have kept the butcher block countertop for a worktop in a future workshop or greenhouse!

[@GraceLawrence-s8n]

Great work to the men, demolishing and loading the skip such a big job and still lots more to do. It’s great to see things coming together in your dream for you. Good luck and well done, thanks for the videos I do enjoy watching. 👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️❤️🇦🇺

Simply amazing the amount of manual hand labor (and how many were in the crew). Don't think you'd see something like that in California now days.

[@theoldstationrenovation]

They were great, just piled in and got it done 💪

[@lesthiele4921]

The demo guys certainly have done a great job with loading the skip, it's a shame some of it could not be recycled, but such is life, I have recently watched a house across the road from my house get the same treatment, bricks and all, very best wishes with the nect stage of work, best regards from a Kiwi living in Australia, Les

[@martyb3783]

Looking Good!

[@AbigailGerlach-zt1sh]

You might want to call and reserve another skip! Lol! My English Department at school had a general clear out of our offices, because English teachers are hoarders, and we filled the first skip and had to order a second one. It's amazing how many files we had saved over the years. We had even saved lessons on "dirty purples" aka mimeograph copies. They had to be 35 years old! Team work makes the dream work! Good luck on step 2!

[@theoldstationrenovation]

We’ve definitely gone through a few skips 😁

[@NinaWick-lk3br]

O my goodness what a big job cant wait for more so exciting ❤

[@barrywood5357]

Packing a skip is an art like going to a restaurant where you go and get your salad in a bowel. pack it with panels at the sides or cucumber then sprinkle everything else to fill the gaps.. nice one crack on be safe

[@johnstuart8511]

Nice to see the place "Ripped apart ". But that's how you get the job done. It's all babysteps. Work in progress. Regards from South Africa 🇿🇦.

[@jeffdayman8183]

When doing renos years ago I always figured I hadn't put enough in the skip if the truck could still lift it and move along the road! 8^) Just kidding. The crew knows how to get one full, that's for sure. More great progress! cheers.

[@theoldstationrenovation]

Haha, absolutely right! In fairness they managed to cram loads into each skip!

[@jwall6006]

I know you are trying to do as much as possible, but this was the thing to hire out. Thank goodness for 6 strong men and a skip. Hope it all fits. Kitty is telling you what’s going on.

[@AnnetteCarolanFourie]

Well done to you both on a task well done looking forward to your finished product your an excellent example to others today of how to make use of beautiful old buildings and turn them into living spaces I'm trying to get my Country to do this because we have such beautiful old Stations like yours and sad to see left to go to waste when could be put to good use well done to you both

[@theoldstationrenovation]

Thank you very much. It does seem that old railways stations in Britain are not really given much thought. This is one of three that were built exactly the same within a few miles, the other two are long gone now and it’s a great shame.

[@asmrbydebbie]

They wore me out just watching them! They did a great job cleaning up.

[@steffieswaddling8432]

Love the British Steel blue on the stairs lol. Why did you get rid of all those planks? was it woodworm? If not you'll be kicking yourselves. Timber is getting expensive

[@valeriemulholland4282]

Having lived through a renovation, I feel vicarious relief that this step is complete on your behalf. Expert crew at work. Love the length of your videos. 🇨🇦

[@theoldstationrenovation]

Thank you very much and hi from south Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 😊

[@synicyst9925]

That is a big skip. It is the worst time in a renovation when all the detritus has piled up. It can look insurmountable. Your cleanup crew seem to have done a really efficient job of it. Now that it is empty you will be able to see all the possibilities of what you can do to it. I am keen on another walk through.

[@robdeaton9910]

I love how you English say skip for what we call a dumpster in the USA. Hence dumpster divers if you have heard of that expression. Great work of the crew they smashed it for loading the skip, bin, dumpster lol 😆

[@theoldstationrenovation]

😂 we call it skip dipping, same thing! 😁

Me, again. Hiya love. For a moment I thought the boys were going to salvage one of the cabinets, only to see them flatten it and toss it in the skip. Good job to them, and another good video. 😎😎😁😁

[@theoldstationrenovation]

No, it all went it the skip! I did notice some items being put in carefully, I dare say the things that they may be able to sell on.

[@morpar318]

I remember a while back when I worked in construction I was in charge of filling up for large dumpster. And the drivers all got pissed off at me because I filled them up like Tetris and their trucks could barely handle tons of trash I filled up with lol The job called for 46 dumpsters, but I got it done with 33.

[@theoldstationrenovation]

Wow…. 33 loads!!!! You just have been emptying a quarry!! 😆

[@SpanishEclectic]

I could hear the dogs, frustrated that they were missing out, while kitty lets everyone know he's in charge, lol. Oh that disgusting insulation. Yuck! Just imagine if you and Gil had to move all that junk yourselves! Worth every penny. We can really see how clear the driveway area and pavements are after all your hard work. A clean slate, as it were. :)

[@theoldstationrenovation]

It’s horrible stuff that insulation! Thankfully the kitty’s hotfooted out before the work started, dived into the caravan and slept through the whole thing! 😃

[@thomasstambaugh5181]

Looks like it was a "Hermione's Skip", like Hermione's Purse in Harry Potter -- the inside just gets bigger and bigger whatever is put into it. Loved this installment. Also loved the black cat taking you and us on a tour of everything upstairs that needs to go. Looks to me like he/she was saying quite clearly "When are you going get rid of this mess"? My cats hate any kind of disorder, they really can't believe that humans are so messy.

[@theoldstationrenovation]

Or like Mary Poppins bag! Both of the cats seem to have settled nicely into the caravan now. It’s a lot tidier in there! 😃

OMG! What a job!!

[@lindaroyal8161]

Nothing like organized trash removal, just kidding, that was a massive job. They knocked it out pretty quickly, good workers. Cat concern - I would keep the cat in the caravan with all the commotion going on. Cats get freaked out so easily, too many places for it to hide with all the demolition going on.

[@theoldstationrenovation]

Yeah, you’re right about the cats. They bailed pretty quickly to the caravan and slept through the whole thing! 😴 🐱

[@boblovell5789]

Might be an idea to keep the caravan for when the station is completed. For a holiday!

[@yorkie75]

By the time this renovation is complete I doubt they’ll ever want to see the inside of a caravan again 😂

[@stephnewman1357]

Wow! they organise the skip too? Thought they would just chuck it all in. Hope kitty got out of the way somewhere nice and safe.

[@theoldstationrenovation]

Yeah, the really made use of the space and I guess the things they can salvage have to be handled carefully. Kittys were fine, they spend most of their time lazing around the caravan now!

Overwhelming 😮😊 Did everything fit in one skip?

[@theoldstationrenovation]

No, they had to bring a few replacements!

[@TheAwakeningangel]

Great work to have it all cleared and on to the next bit, have you checked on the pipes, if you look at the 55 sec mark the room you are in before you go upstairs , well it looks like water dripping from almost near the light. Tho I guess by now your way past that as not real time. however cant wait to see it all cleared and those great windows come to life again. XXX Dede xxxx

[@yorkie75]

There are a few holes in the roof so could be rainwater

[@geraldstoddard8215]

I wouldn't call that expert sorting, They're stacking some of the flat pieces at an angle against the wall, creating an empty space behind them.

[@rontanser9369]

Just had a thought, if you’re keeping the canopy outside that back room, would it be an idea to put some V Lux windows in the canopy to let more light in all the windows

[@theoldstationrenovation]

Absolutely, it’s doesn’t let much light in so we’re having a couple of skylights put in.

[@williamwales6619]

This is the bit when the self doubt creeps in .(War zone). It's all in the prep. You will see the sunny side of this when the building work starts. Set your self small goals and work through them. That way there is a sense of progress. (Happy Days). I've been there and it can be soul destroying...Onwards and upwards. 👍

Reminds me of when we rented (and filled) a dumpster about that size while clearing out my mother's house after she died. I invented a new game I called "dumpster frisbee" in which we threw old and worthless encyclopedia volumes into the dumpster.

[@raeryan5959]

At least you guys didn't have to fill the skip

[@suzanneguthrie284]

Gotta love a good clean up! How long did it really take?

[@theoldstationrenovation]

It took five days! And that was working at full pelt 💪

[@peterholmesgavleman]

I’m wondering why the floorboards which would’ve had a lot of age and seasoning with them are going into the skip. Surely if they were in good condition during the extraction from the building they could’ve been put to one side for future recycling in other projects either by yourselves or community groups.

[@theoldstationrenovation]

They materials they take away are priced in to the job, since they are a salvage firm I imagine they’ll make a good bit of money selling on the bits that can be reused, certainly the good boards and timber.

[@kimphilpin1062]

These lads must be one of two things at the end of the day . Well fit or fit to drop.😮. Also the hard hats keep their heads safe but what about their lungs. X

[@theoldstationrenovation]

I think I’d go with ‘well fit’ because they kept going day after day 😁

[@charlesbutsch7201]

This is a good example of Not how to do demolition. Not scheduling the skip properly meant that there was double handling of the material. The crew did not seem any more experienced than your husband when he did the earlier demo. Good luck on the renovation. I hope the architect brings some professionalism to the project>

[@Vistasabia]

The cat yikes 😂. I’m feeling stressed for it! You guys holding up ok??
