What can you put in our skips?

Ah, the age-old question: what can you actually toss into a skip? Well, think of it like this: if it’s something you'd commonly find lying around a house, garden, or a construction site, you're probably good to go. Old furniture (though sofas might be a bit of a squeeze), garden waste, rubble, and general DIY debris are all welcome. However, certain items are the party poopers of the skip world. Things like mattresses, asbestos (definitely a no-no), plasterboard, and large electricals are best left out. If you're unsure, or just want a laugh, have a look at our guide on what you can and can't put in a skip.

Skip Permits in Newton Aycliffe

Thinking of putting your skip on your driveway? Congratulations, you're in the clear! But if your skip's destined for public land, it's time to talk permits. In Newton Aycliffe, you’ll need a skip permit for that, which comes with a small fee and a little waiting time. The good news? GoSkip handles all the nitty-gritty paperwork with the local council because who really wants to do that? If you're in a controlled parking zone (because who isn’t these days?), you might also need a parking suspension. We’re happy to advise on that, but it’s your call to the council. For the full lowdown, check out our ultimate guide to skip permits.
