If you’re considering hiring a domestic skip for your own private use, you may be wondering where to put it. This is because there are several areas where you can, and cannot, keep a skip. First and foremost, you’ll need to put the container near to the source of the rubbish. This will make trips to and from the skip far easier. However, it also needs to be accessible to the company you’ve hired it from. Of course, it is also important to place it somewhere safe.
In this blog, we share a few locations to place your domestic skip for the duration of your hire period. Please keep reading to find out more.
On The Driveway
A driveway makes an excellent spot to place a domestic skip. In addition to being conveniently located for the hire company to deliver and pick up from, these spaces are typically large enough to accommodate a range of sizes. If you can manage parking on the road for the duration of your skip hire, using your driveway to house a container is one of the best options.
Roadside Permit For Domestic Skips
There are a number of areas where you should avoid placing a skip. This typically includes public or private land that does not belong to you, and is usually for health and safety reasons. However, if you apply for a skip permit, you may be able to temporarily place a skip in an otherwise forbidden spot. It’s crucial you check in with your local authorities in the first instance to find out. So, if you don’t have much land to spare for a skip, or it is not convenient, don’t worry! Simply contact your local council to discuss a skip hire permit.
Garden
For those lucky enough to own a sizable garden, it can be a great location to temporarily house a domestic skip. Not only will it avoid obstructing your driveway, but will ensure the container is out of harm’s way and safely on your own land. Our team will do our utmost to place the skip in the most convenient part of your property for your project, whether that’s the front lawn or the back garden. As long as it’s accessible and safe, we will make every effort to drop-it off in your preferred spot.
