What can you put in our skips?

Right, let's get down to the nitty-gritty of skip etiquette. Think of our skips as the VIP lounge for your waste—only the right kind of rubbish gets in. Household items, garden waste, and construction materials are all welcome guests. But remember, just like your Aunt Edna, some things are best left out of the party. Mattresses, asbestos, plasterboard, and large electricals need to find another venue. Sofas are a grey area—sometimes they’re allowed, but it’s like trying to fit a camel through the eye of a needle. When in doubt, check our dos and don’ts list to avoid any skip faux pas.

Skip Permits in Plumstead

Ah, the magnificent world of skip permits in Plumstead. If you’ve got your own driveway or land, you’re in luck—no permit needed. But if your skip is destined for public land, you'll need a permit. This takes a few days to sort and comes with a small charge. Don’t worry; GoSkip will handle all the necessary paperwork with the local council so you can keep your hair on. Now, Plumstead is known for its controlled parking zones. If you live on a street that resembles a game of Tetris with cars, you might need a parking suspension. We can advise on this, but unfortunately, you'll need to liaise with the council. For the full scoop, check out our guide to skip permits.

What happens to your waste?

Ever wondered what happens to your discarded treasures once they leave Plumstead in one of our skips? Most of it gets sorted and recycled, giving it a chance at a second life. Your old garden fence could reappear as a trendy new bench in the park or even part of someone’s avant-garde art installation. At GoSkip, we're committed to making sure your waste doesn't just disappear into a void. Curious about the journey your waste takes? Check out our waste adventure page to learn more.
