What can you put in our skips?

Ah, the age-old question: what can you put in a skip? Like a wise Dumfries local might say, "Anything but the kitchen sink"—unless, of course, it's detached and non-plumbed. Feel free to toss in household items, garden waste, and those pesky renovation leftovers. But hold your horses (or sheep), because there are a few no-nos: mattresses, asbestos, plasterboard, and large electricals are on the naughty list. Sofas? Well, those are a bit like haggis—best double-checked. For a comprehensive guide, take a peek at what you can and can't put in a skip.

Skip Permits in Dumfries

Skip permits in Dumfries, a bit like finding a parking spot near the High Street on a Saturday. If you're placing the skip on your own land, congrats, you're as free as a bird. But if you've got your eye on public land, you'll need a skip permit, which takes a few days and requires a small fee. Fear not, GoSkip handles all that pesky paperwork with the local council—consider it our little gift to you. And if you're in a street with controlled parking, you might need a parking suspension. We’ll point you in the right direction, but the council is your go-to for that. For the nitty-gritty, head over to our ultimate guide to skip permits.
