What can you put in our skips?

Ah, the age-old question: what can you actually toss into one of our skips? The good news is, most of your everyday junk is welcome. Think household items, garden waste, and even construction materials. But before you get too carried away, let’s talk about the no-no list. We’re talking mattresses, asbestos, plasterboard, and those giant old TVs you’ve been meaning to recycle since the turn of the century. Sofas? They might fit, but they’ll be taking up some serious skip real estate—so maybe think twice. For a comprehensive guide on what you can and can’t chuck, have a peek here.

Skip Permits in Basingstoke

Let’s navigate the thrilling world of skip permits in Basingstoke. If you're planning to plonk that skip on your own driveway, you’re in the clear—no permits required! However, if your skip needs to grace the public pavement, you'll need a skip permit, which could take a few days to sort out and involves a small fee. But don’t fret! GoSkip takes care of all the paperwork with the local council, so you can focus on more important things—like debating whether the Basingstoke Canal is the town's best hidden gem. Oh, and if your street boasts controlled parking, a parking suspension might also be necessary. We’re happy to advise, but this part is a chat you’ll need to have with the council.
