Permits
You do not need a permit for a skip if it is placed on your own land. However, a permit is required from your Local Authority if it is to be placed on the road or verges.
We will organise the permit on your behalf. The cost of this will be added to the price of the skip (£39 in England and from £100 in Scotland).
In England it takes between 3-5 working days. In Scotland it can take up to 14 days. Please consider this when arranging delivery.
