Where can my skip go?
There are two choices for where to put your skip: on private land or on the public highway.
Placing a skip on private land, such as your driveway or garden, doesn't require a permit. However, if you plan to position the skip on the public highway, you will need to obtain a skip hire permit from the local authority.
Skips must be placed on sturdy ground and mustn’t obstruct traffic or emergency access.
Skip size guide
Trying to guess which size skip is most suitable for your waste is a recipe for a lot of wasted time and money.
It's important to choose the right skip size to ensure you have enough capacity for your waste without overpaying for unused space, or worse, having to pay for an extra container because you hired a small skip for a big job.
To help you understand what size skip you’ll need, we put together a handy skip size guide which explains what each container is best used for. We can also offer size advice over the phone if you’d rather talk to a human being.
What can go in my skip?
SunSkips accepts all general waste, including household items, construction debris, garden waste, and more. However, certain hazardous materials, such as asbestos, chemicals, and electrical items, are not allowed in skips. Consult SunSkips’ detailed list of prohibited items to ensure safe and compliant waste disposal.
Mini skip hire in Cambridge
If you don’t have a lot of waste, a small skip might be all you need.
Mini skips are often used for modest garden clean-ups, small renovations, or DIY projects where the waste volume is relatively low.
Choosing a small skip like a two or four-yard container might also be the only way you can get a skip into an area with limited space.
