Skip Permits

In certain situations, it may be necessary for you to obtain a skip permit before hiring a skip. This is particularly true if you're planning to place the skip on a public road or highway.

A skip permit is essentially a license that allows you to place a skip on public land. It's typically issued by the local council and ensures that the skip is placed safely and legally.

Please note that if you choose to place a skip on your private land (such as your driveway), you generally won't need a skip permit.

Do I Need A Skip Permit?

Whether or not you need a skip permit will depend on where you plan to place the skip. If you're placing it on private property, such as your driveway or garden, you won't need a skip permit.

However, if you're planning to place the skip on a public road or highway, you will likely need a skip permit. This is because skips can pose a hazard to pedestrians and drivers, and the local council needs to ensure that they're placed safely.

It's worth noting that skip permits are usually only required for skips that are larger than 6-8 cubic yards. If you're unsure whether you need a permit or not, it's always best to check with your local council.

How To Obtain A Skip Permit

If you do need a skip permit, it's important to obtain one before hiring a skip. Failure to do so could result in a fine or penalty.

To obtain a skip permit, you'll need to contact your local council. You can usually do this online or over the phone. The council will ask you some basic questions about the skip (such as its size, location, and duration), and they'll let you know if you need a permit.

If you do need a permit, the council will issue one to you (usually for a fee). The permit will outline the conditions of use for the skip, such as where it can be placed and for how long.
