✅ Use Private Land Where You Can
Avoid permit fees by placing your skip on a driveway or private plot. Permits are only needed for public roads.

Streets in Glodwick, Hollinwood or Lees may have tight access — a smaller skip might be more suitable.
✅ Know What Can’t Go in the Skip
Tyres, fridges, TVs, electricals, and hazardous materials aren’t accepted in general skips. Check with your provider.
✅ Book Ahead During Busy Seasons
Demand peaks during spring and summer — booking early helps secure your preferred skip size and delivery date.
✅ Let Your Provider Handle Permits
If your skip needs to go on a public road, most companies will sort the council permit for you.
