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. The council charge for these permits and we are able to apply for your permit on your behalf. It normally takes between 24 and 48 hours to receive the permit, so please allow for this time when placing an order.

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.

How full can the skip be?
All skips should be filled no higher than the height of the sides and should be level loaded.
