What can you put in our skips?

So, you've got your skip and you're eyeing it like a toddler eyeing a toy box. What goes in, you ask? Well, most of your average household items, garden waste, and construction materials are welcome. Sadly, your beloved but sagging mattress and that ancient sofa (which probably has its own postcode by now) might need a second thought. And remember, things like asbestos and large electricals are a firm no-no. Plasterboard? That’s a skip faux pas too. For a full list of the do's and definitely-don'ts, check out our guide here.

Skip Permits in Preston

Thinking of parking that skip on your driveway? You're golden—no permit needed! However, if public land is the only option, you'll need a skip permit in Preston. Don't worry, it won’t cost the earth but does take a few days, so plan ahead. The good news? GoSkip handles all the council hoop-jumping for you. If you've got controlled parking on your street, a parking suspension might also be necessary—another delightful layer of bureaucracy. While we can guide you, the council will need to hear from you directly on this one. Dive into the nitty-gritty details here.

What happens to your waste?

Wondering what happens to your waste once we whisk it away? Well, the vast majority gets sorted and recycled. Imagine your old newspaper coming back as a shiny new cereal box or that garden waste transforming into compost that helps grow Preston’s finest allotments. We love a good upcycle story!
