What can you put in our skips?

So, you're ready to toss your stuff. But wait—before you channel your inner Marie Kondo, let's chat about what can and cannot be thrown into a skip. The good news? Most of your household items, garden waste, and construction materials get the green light. However, there are a few items that are more 'no-go' than 'let's go', like mattresses, asbestos, plasterboard, and large electricals. Sofas could fit in, but let's be honest, it's a bit like trying to fit a roundabout in a square hole. For the nitty-gritty details, head over to our guide on what you can and can't put in a skip.

Skip Permits in Portswood

Permits, permits, permits. The word alone might make you want to skip the skip. But fear not! If your skip is lounging on your private land, you're in the clear. However, if you're eyeing a spot on public land, you'll need a skip permit in Portswood, which takes a few days to arrange and comes with a small fee. The good news? GoSkip handles all the paperwork with the local council, so you can focus on more exciting things, like deciding which roundabout to avoid next.

Oh, and if you live on a street with controlled parking, you might need a parking suspension. While we can offer advice, this is something you'll need to sort with the council. For all the juicy details, check out our ultimate guide to skip permits.
