What can you put in our skips?

So, you're ready to fill up a skip, but what exactly can go in there? Think of it as a treasure chest for all things unwanted—household clutter, garden waste, and construction materials are all welcome. But before you toss in that old sofa, remember: it might be a tight squeeze, and let's just say, sofas aren’t the skip's best friend. And as for the forbidden items? Keep mattresses, asbestos, plasterboard, and large electricals out, unless you're planning to star in an episode of "Skip Nightmares." For the full rundown, see our guide on what you can and can't put in a skip.

Skip Permits in Rochester

Here's the lowdown on skip permits in Rochester: if you're planning to park that skip on your private driveway, you're good to go—no permit required! However, if your skip has dreams of lounging on public land, a permit will be needed. Don't worry though, GoSkip takes care of all the paperwork to make sure everything is above board with the local council. Just give us a few days, and we’ll sort it out for you, with a small charge to boot.

But wait, does your street have controlled parking? If so, you might need a parking suspension. While we can provide some sage advice, it's something you’ll need to chat with the council about. For all the nitty-gritty details, take a look at our ultimate guide to skip permits.

What happens to your waste?

Ever wondered what happens to your waste after it's whisked away in one of our skips? Well, magic! Well, not really, but close. Most of it gets sorted and recycled, which means your old junk could come back to life as something brand new—like a bench in one of Rochester’s parks or maybe even part of a new eco-friendly building.
