Do I need a permit for a skip?
If you don’t have a driveway, garden or other private land at your home to place the skip on to you will need to apply for a council permit to have the skip placed on the roadside.

Your drive will need to 8 foot (2.4m) wide to allow our truck access. It will also need to be free from low hanging trees and power lines that may cause an obstruction.

Some driveways, particularly those which are block paved or have a soft tarmac surface, are susceptible to damage.

All skips can be paid for prior to hiring, by all major credit cards or cash. We are able to take payment over the phone or through our online booking system.
How full can the skip be?
All skips should be filled no higher than the height of the sides and should be level loaded. If you overfill your skip you risk us not being able to remove it and incurring further costs to remove the extra waste.
