Permits are not required if the skip is placed on your own property, such as a driveway, lawn or other private area.
If the skip needs to be located on a public road, a permit from the local council will be required. Please provide us with the details at the time of hire and we can arrange this on your behalf, or assist you with the process, with the cost added to your skip hire fee.
Lamps are included with the permit and will automatically turn on during the hours of darkness.
Permit validity times vary depending on the location and the council, and it can take between three and ten days for a permit to be issued, so please allow for this when booking your skip.
In most streets a bay suspension is also required, which carries a daily charge and an administration fee.
