How do I get a skip permit in Essex?

You can apply for a skip permit at Essex County Council. Please check the council’s website, give them a call, or visit the office to learn more about the requirements.

Road Sizes and Permits for Skip Hire in Essex

Understanding Road Sizes

Residential streets: The narrowness of many residential streets in Essex’s towns may affect the placement and accessibility of larger skips. Please consider the size of the skip you want to hire and the amount of space available on your street before you make a booking for skip hire in Essex.

Commercial areas: Skips placed in commercial or industrial areas in Essex County must comply with any additional restrictions or regulations that apply to business premises.

Major roads: Additional planning and safety measures may be required if you plan to place a skip in a high-traffic area or on a major road in Essex County. For example, you may need to coordinate with local authorities for traffic management.

Permit Requirements

When permits are needed: In Essex, you need a permit if you intend to place a skip anywhere other than private land, your driveway, or your front garden, such as on a public pavement or road. This is to ensure that skips in Essex do not obstruct pedestrian pathways or traffic.

How to obtain a permit: Contact Essex County Council to apply for a skip permit. You’ll need to provide details about the size of the skip, where it will be placed, and how long you intend to hire it for. Our friendly team can assist with the process to ensure that you comply with local regulations.

Permit costs: You will need to pay an application fee of approximately £105 when applying for a permit. There may be other costs involved, depending on the location of the skip placement. We can provide guidance on these costs and help you with the application process.

Permit duration: In Essex, permits are usually issued for two weeks (14 days). If you need to use the skip for a longer time, you may need to apply for a renewal or a new permit.

Additional Tips

Check local regulations: Be sure to check with Essex County Council for specific regulations or additional requirements related to Essex skip hire and placement in your area.

Consider safety: Make sure that the placement of your skip does not pose a safety hazard to others, especially pedestrians and drivers. You may be required to put up adequate signage as well as barriers.

Coordinate with neighbours: Ensure you inform your neighbours in advance to minimise inconvenience if placing the skip close to residential properties.
