Please note that skips cannot be used for certain hazardous materials.

If you are unsure, speak to the team before booking so we can advise you properly.
Domestic and commercial jobs often need different types of support. A homeowner in Basildon may only need a short term skip hire option for old furniture, garden waste, or DIY rubble. A builder, landlord, or business may need long term skip hire, regular waste collection, or a larger range of skips for ongoing waste management.
A 4-yard skip is a small, open-topped container used for small kitchen rip-outs, end-of-tenancy clear-outs, and smaller garden and landscaping jobs
A 6 yard skip is the classic “builder’s skip” big enough for most medium-sized home renovation and clear-out jobs, without overwhelming your driveway.
The 8-yard is the classic “builders’ skip”, specially designed for heavier materials, such as bricks, rubble, hardcore, and soil.
This size gives you a lot of volume, which is why it’s best for big clear-outs with lighter waste, not heavy, hardcore waste.
A 12 yard skip gives you maximum volume for bulky, light waste such as furniture, packaging, timber, plastics and general clearance material. It’s ideal when you need to clear a lot of space quickly.
Our 20-yard and 40-yard roll-on-roll-off (RoRo) skips are built for a large volume of waste.

40 Yard Roll On Roll Off Skip Capacity and Dimensions
For heavy loose waste such as soil, hardcore, or large volumes of material, grab hire may be more suitable than a standard skip. For larger commercial or construction jobs, RoRo skips may be the better option.
You normally do not need a permit if the skip is placed fully on private land, such as a driveway. If the skip needs to sit on a public road, pavement, verge, parking bay or other public highway area, a permit or highway licence is usually required.
GOV.UK also explains that a skip licence or permit is needed when placing a skip on a public road, and safety lights, cones, or markings may be required.
If your skip cannot go on private land, speak to us first so we can advise on the right skip size, permit requirements, and delivery options.
Driveway placement is usually the simplest option.
Public road placement usually needs approval.
Pavement or partial pavement placement may not be allowed in many areas.
Parking bays, yellow lines or controlled areas may need a separate suspension or dispensation.
The skip should not block visibility, traffic, footpaths, driveways or emergency access.
Permit approval should be confirmed before delivery if the skip is going on the public highway.
Skip Hire Team is rated by customers across our service areas for clear communication, reliable delivery, fair pricing, and helpful collection support.
Skip placement in Basildon depends on where the skip will sit, how much road space is available, and whether the location affects pedestrians, parking bays, or traffic flow. Driveways are usually the simplest option. Road, verge, pavement, or bay placement may need approval before delivery, so it is worth checking access before you book.
If the skip sits fully on a driveway, forecourt, or private yard, a permit is usually not needed. We check access notes, space, and whether the skip could overhang the pavement or road.
Some streets may have resident parking, limited waiting bays, pay-and-display bays, or other parking controls. Tell us about nearby signs or bays when booking so we can plan the placement correctly.
Skips may not be suitable on yellow lines, loading restrictions, bus stops, junctions, bends, or narrow roads. We review the access and advise if another placement option is needed.
Clearway, no-stopping, or no-loading restrictions can prevent skip placement outside the property. Share any road markings or signs when booking so we can check before delivery.
If you are unsure where the skip can go, contact us before booking. We’ll help check the placement, access, permit needs, and suitable skip size before arranging delivery.
If you’re a builder, landscaper, roofer, property manager, or contractor, apply for a trade account to make repeat skip bookings easier across your projects.
