Skip Hire Buying Guide

Everything you need to know about hiring a skip, permits, and waste management to ensure your project runs smoothly

Choosing the right size

Choosing the correct skip size depends on the volume and type of waste you expect to generate. As a general rule, it is often more cost-effective to select a slightly larger skip rather than risk overfilling a smaller one.

Skips must not be filled above the level load line. Overfilled skips cannot be legally transported and may result in delays or additional charges.

If you are unsure which size is suitable for your project, see our skip sizes guide or contact our team.

Permits

If the skip is placed on private land such as a driveway or garden, a permit is not usually required.

If it needs to be positioned on a public road or pavement, a council permit is legally required. We can arrange this during the booking process. Approval times vary depending on your local authority.

Safe Loading

Skips must be loaded safely and evenly, ensuring a level load.

Hazardous materials, electrical appliances, liquids and other restricted items must not be placed in standard skips. If you are unsure about a specific item, see our guide on skip waste types or contact our team before loading.
