What can you put in our skips?

Ah, the age-old question: what can I put in a skip? Well, dear reader, if it’s a normal household item, garden waste, or construction material, then it’s a thumbs up from us. Feel free to chuck in old curtains, broken bricks, or the garden gnome who’s been giving you suspicious looks. However, if you were planning on bidding farewell to a mattress, asbestos, plasterboard, or large electricals, we must stop you there. Sofas? Tricky business—they might fit, but their bulky nature makes them a bit of a skip hog. When in doubt, it's best to double-check. For a full rundown of what can and can’t go in, mosey on over to our guide here.

Skip Permits in Blackstone

Planning to keep your skip on your own land? Brilliant! You're all set and don’t need to lift a finger. But if your skip dreams involve public land—a pavement, street, or that grassy patch outside your neighbour's house—a skip permit is your golden ticket. In Blackstone, this permit may take a few days to process and will come with a small fee. Fear not, as GoSkip is on it, handling all the nitty-gritty paperwork with the local council, so you don’t have to. And if you're living in a street with controlled parking, you might need a parking suspension too. We can offer some friendly advice, but this one's between you and the council. For all the ins and outs, pop over to our ultimate guide to skip permits.

What happens to your waste?

You might think that once your skip is whisked away by our trusty team, your waste would go on a one-way trip to landfill. But in reality, it’s more like a magical transformation. Here in Blackstone, we’re all about giving waste a second chance at life—perhaps as a new park bench or a recycled bottle for your favourite fizzy drink. The majority of what you chuck into our skips is sorted and recycled, because everyone deserves a comeback story, even your old shower curtain. Want to dig deeper into the life cycle of your waste?
