What can and cannot go in your skip
Most general household, garden, and construction waste can go straight into your skip. However, strict environmental rules mean certain items need special processing.
- Standard items accepted: soil, garden waste, bricks, rubble, timber, metal, plastic, domestic furniture, and cardboard.
- Accepted when declared at booking, extra charge applies: sofas and upholstered seating, mattresses, fridges and freezers, TVs and monitors, tyres, dry paint tins, and plasterboard, which must be kept separate from general waste.
- Items never accepted: liquids, paint tins containing liquid, asbestos, gas bottles, clinical waste, and food waste.
For a full breakdown of loading rules, check our detailed guide on what can and cannot go in a skip.
Need a skip permit in Norfolk?
If you have a private driveway, front garden, or off-street land to place your skip, you will not need a permit. If the skip has to sit on a public road or pavement, Norfolk County Council requires an official road permit.
Do not worry about wrestling with council forms. We organise the permit application on your behalf when you book online. Council approvals can take a few working days to clear, so book a little early if your skip is heading onto the street.
Visit our skip permit guide to learn when a permit is needed and how to make sure everything is in place before your booking.
Need heavy lifting? Try Norfolk grab hire
If you have a massive pile of soil, concrete, or muck sitting on your site, our Norfolk grab hire service can help keep your project moving. Our 8-wheel grab lorries carry roughly 16 tonnes per load and include 30 minutes of loading time.
Our hydraulic arm loads alongside the pile at ground level. For safety reasons, we do not reach, lift, or load over walls, fences, or hedges, and we never operate over the lorry cab or rear. You will need clear site access of about 10 metres high by 5 metres wide.
Grab hire is arranged over the phone. When you are ready to book, give us a call to discuss your site or request a grab hire quote.
Sorting waste right here in Norfolk
We care about keeping Norfolk green.
When our drivers pick up your skip, it travels straight back to our licensed recycling facility. We sort through every load by hand and machine to separate metals, timber, soil, plastics, and aggregate.
By sorting materials thoroughly, we keep as much waste as possible out of landfill and make sure as much as possible gets recovered and reused across Norfolk construction projects.
