Pro-Tip: for Heavy Waste: Materials like soil, rubble, bricks, muck, and concrete are incredibly dense. Due to legal truck lifting weights, these materials must go into smaller containers (4-Yard or 8-Yard Builders skips). Large maxi skips are strictly reserved for light, bulky waste.

Yes. If you place a skip on any public road, pavement, grass verge, or council-maintained highway within the London Borough of Bromley, you legally require a temporary highway licence. If you need a skip placed on a public road, simply call our team to discuss current council pricing, and we will handle the formal application process on your behalf. A standard Bromley skip licence takes 2 working days to process and is valid for a maximum of 14 days.
To avoid logistical delays, unexpected council fines, or aborted delivery fees, please run through this pre-booking checklist:
Ensure your private driveway or land has enough physical clearance to house the skip container fully off the public footway.
Our delivery vehicles are heavy 18-tonne skip loaders. They require an entrance width of at least 3.0 meters (9.8 feet) and a vertical clearance of 4.0 meters (13.1 feet) free from low hanging tree branches or overhead utility wires.
Fully loaded trucks weigh up to 18 tonnes. Delivery pathways must be free of weak bridges, unadopted roads, or fragile paving slabs.
Check if your street is governed by restricted parking hours, narrow layout limits, or heavy traffic flow controls.
Confirm your waste streams align with approved items. Mixing hazardous items will result in a failed collection.
Before booking skip hire in Bromley, check where the skip will be placed. Driveway placement is usually the easiest option. Roadside placement may need a Bromley Council skip licence, and parking bays may need a bay suspension.
