Skip permit
Cost of permit
The current fee for a skip permit is £57 (you will need a debit or credit card). Permits are valid for 28 days.
If you wish to extend the permit after the initial 28 day period you must apply for a new permit.
Processing time
Applications are typically processed within three to five working days.
All applications are individually inspected, to check the suitability of the proposed location. Skip operators should wait for approval before placing a skip on the highway.
After the skip application is processed the department will tell you the result. They will also tell you if there are any additional rules you have to follow.
Tacit consent
Yes. If you don't hear back in 10 days after sending your application, you can assume it's been approved.
Appeal process
There is no appeal procedure. Skip operators are reminded that they must not place a skip on the Highway if it has been refused by the Authority.
If you have any questions, call Streetworks on 01639 686338.
