What can you put in our skips?

Picture this: you've got a mountain of garden waste that could rival the nearby hills. No worries! Toss it into one of our skips along with those pesky construction materials and the odd household item. But before you start thinking of your skip as a magical black hole, remember: no mattresses, asbestos, plasterboard, or large electricals allowed. Sofas? They’re like the awkward relative at a reunion—sometimes welcome, but you might want to double-check first (because size does matter).

Skip Permits in St. Albans

So, you're planning to park your skip on your own driveway? Fantastic! You're all set. But if your skip needs to reside on public land, you'll need a skip permit in St. Albans—think of it as a tiny passport for your skip. This process takes a few days, and yes, there's a small fee involved. But don't fret; GoSkip is here to handle all that pesky paperwork with the local council, leaving you free to focus on more exciting endeavours, like deciding what to chuck out next.

And if you live on a street with controlled parking, you might need a parking suspension. While we can offer our sage advice, this one's a DIY project you'll need to arrange with the council. For the full scoop, visit our guide to skip permits.

What happens to your waste?

The vast majority of your waste is sorted and recycled, potentially re-emerging as something entirely new—perhaps even a quirky art installation at the local museum.
