What can you put in our skips?

So, you've got a skip. Now, what can you toss in there? Picture it like this: your skip is hungry, and it wants a balanced diet. Feed it your garden waste, construction materials, and those endless household items you've been meaning to chuck. But hold the phone—some things are off the menu. No asbestos, mattresses, or large electricals, please! Sofas can go in, but they're like that awkward guest who takes up too much space—best to check first. For the full lowdown on what’s in and what’s out, have a gander at our dos and don'ts guide. Keep it playful, keep it clean!

Skip Permits in Houghton

Planning to park your skip on your own driveway? Fantastic, you're ready to roll! But if you're eyeing that prime piece of public land for your skip, you'll need a skip permit in Houghton. These permits can take a few days to sort and come with a small fee. Luckily, GoSkip is on hand to handle all that pesky paperwork with the local council, so you can focus on more important things—like what takeaway to order after a hard day’s work. And if your street is more controlled than an episode of a British period drama, a parking suspension might be needed. We can offer advice, but you’ll need to chat with the council about that. For everything you need to know, hop over to our ultimate guide to skip permits.
