It’s probable that you won’t need a permit if your skip is placed completely on private land.
Midi Skips: Small, convenient and suitable for small low volume waste projects.
When it’s dark or visibility is poor because of fog or mist, place reflective cones or flashing marker lights around the skip.
Never fill a skip with waste materials that could present a potential fire hazard or cause an explosion. Also, materials that could release toxic fumes, pose a health or environmental hazard should not be thrown into a skip.
Try to think realistically about what needs to thrown away. Two small skips will cost more to hire than a large one.
If you’re skip needs to be placed on the pavement or road, then it’s the up to the skip hire company to make sure they have a valid licence or permit for the skip.
Make sure that waste materials don’t stick out from the sides of the skip. This can pose a potential hazard for road users or pedestrians.
If you need to hire a skip, contact your local council, they may have a list of approved skip hire companies.
Be aware that skip hire may require a skip hire permit which will cost money and takes time to organize.
Never overload your skip, make sure it’s emptied once it’s filled up.
When carrying out renovations or building works to your property, you may find that you need to hire a builder's skip to get rid of the rubble or rubbish. 4th November, 2006
