Skip Hire Permits – Do You Need One

Once you’ve chosen a skip hire company, and have determined the correct skip size for your job, it’s important to think about where you are going to place the skip as well as if any permits are required.

The regulations for waste management are complex, but our teams are here to simplify the compliance for you. Our teams are knowledgeable about local laws and will help you to obtain the required permits for skips, so that your project meets all legal requirements.

Skip Permits What Are They

If you want to place your skip on a public street, road, or sidewalk, then you will need a Skip Permit. Skip permits are vital in controlling the amount of skips that are on the road, maintaining adequate parking, while also managing traffic.

Private Property: Exemption

Your skip does not need a permit if it is to be placed on private land, such as your driveway or other privately owned property.

Permits and Their Issuance

Your local council is responsible for issuing skip permits and licenses. In some cases, Skip hire companies will apply on behalf of their client for a Skip Permit, at other times the individual or entity that rents the Skip must apply themselves. Please visit your local council website to find out more about their requirements and procedures.

Your Skip Permits Validity Period

Local councils set their own time limits for the validity of Skip Permits. Permits are commonly issued for a period of one to two weeks, with extensions available on request, subject to additional fees. In order to avoid any penalties, you must initiate the extension within the allotted timeframe.

The Costs of Skip Permits

Regional differences in costs are common for skip permits. Prices are also affected by which council or borough issues the permit. Costs can start at around £30 plus VAT. Variations may reach up to £165+ VAT. The fees for each city are determined by their respective councils and the skip hire companies have no control over them.

What Is The Timeframe For Obtaining Permits

Depending on your local council, the process of getting a skip permit can take from 1 to 10 business days. We encourage prospective skip hirers to give themselves enough time for the acquisition of a permit.

Parking Suspensions Are Subject To Additional Charges

Should your Skip be placed within a Controlled Parking Zone(CPZ), then you are responsible for suspension of parking bay fees. The permit cost varies across different councils. These fees are generally charged every day.

Conditions Attached To Skip Permits

To ensure safety, councils may place restrictions on skip placement or use. Compliance with these conditions, such as the provision of nighttime safety lighting, reflective markings, and the positioning of traffic cones, is compulsory to avoid fines.

There are also other conditions which may apply, including:

• The skip’s location on the highway or public road
• The maximum dimensions of the skip
• The appropriate care and disposal of the skip’s contents|The proper care and disposal of the skip’s contents|The skip’s contents should be disposed of with care.}
• Safe removal of your skip|Skip removal is a safe and secure procedure|The safe removal of the skip|The removal of the skip in a safe manner}

You could face fines of up to £1,000 if you don’t have a skip permit, or if you don’t comply with the conditions in your skip permit regarding safety lights at night and markings etc.
