What can you put in our skips?

You know that feeling when you open the fridge and wonder what on earth is growing in the Tupperware at the back? Well, think of our skips as a bigger, outdoor version of that fridge—minus the science experiment. You can toss in household items, garden waste, and your regular construction debris. But hold your horses, because not everything is skip-friendly! Mattresses, asbestos, plasterboard, and large electricals are on the naughty list. Sofas might sneak in there, but honestly, it’s like trying to fit a square peg into a round hole. For a full rundown of what’s in and what’s out, check this list. Skip responsibly, my friends!

Skip Permits in Hockliffe

Here’s the scoop on skip permits in Hockliffe: if you’ve got a nice little patch of private land to plop your skip down, you’re in the clear—no permit needed. However, if your skip needs to sit on public land, like the road outside your home, you’ll need a skip permit. Think of it as a VIP pass for your rubbish. It takes a few days to sort out and comes with a small charge, but worry not! GoSkip will handle all the paperwork with the local council, so you don’t have to lift a finger (except to point at where you want the skip). Now, if you live in a part of Hockliffe with controlled parking, you might need a parking suspension too. We can guide you, but you'll have to chat with the council about this one.

What happens to your waste?

Once your skip is collected, where does all that stuff go? Well, it doesn’t just vanish into thin air. The vast majority of it gets carefully sorted and recycled. Imagine your old garden waste becoming part of a lovely compost, or your construction leftovers transformed into a new local building project. It’s like a magical waste reincarnation! For the full lowdown on where your waste ends up and its second life, take a peek at our guide. Who knew rubbish could have such an exciting afterlife?
