Local access & delivery notes in Romford

Romford has a mix of wide main roads and tighter residential streets. Access is usually straightforward, but a few local realities can affect delivery:

  • Controlled/restricted parking areas: Zones where kerbside space is controlled by restrictions, the bay suspension is required to place a skip legally. Without a valid bay suspension, the driver refuses delivery, and you could be fined. Start at £33 per day
  • Residential access: Some streets can be tightly parked, especially in RM1/RM2 areas. Keeping the drop zone clear makes a big difference.

If you’re unsure whether your street can take a skip, mention it when you request a quote or speak to our team. We’ll check access and advise the best option (including wait-and-load if needed).

The lady I booked through was so good, she advised me to book a medium skip which was perfect. Everything went well and the skip was delivered and picked up as expected.

Do I need a permit for a skip in Romford?

You only need a permit if the skip will be placed on the road/public highway. If the skip is fully on private land (driveway/garden), you usually won’t need one.

Our experts handle both private property placements and on-street skips under Havering Council’s permit system. New skip licence for 7 to 14 days. Cost between £50−£95+.

How long does it take?

Plan for 3–5 business days for permit processing, depending on location and council requirements.

Permit checklist

  • Confirm where the skip will sit (driveway vs road)
  • If road placement is needed, we’ll guide you on what the council typically requires
  • Book delivery for a date that allows time for permit approval
  • Keep the area clear so the driver can place the skip safely

Romford Skip Hire FAQs

Find the answers to the most common skip hire questions customers are looking for.

We work with licensed carriers and approved disposal facilities, including Gerpins Lane Recycling Centre (RM4 1XR).

Many will. As a quick rule, you’ll usually need about 2.5m width and 4.5m length for off-road placement.

If access is tight, ask us about alternatives like wait-and-load.

Hazardous items are typically not allowed (including chemicals, paint, gas cylinders, batteries, tires, and liquids).

Some items, like plasterboard, may require separate handling. If you’re unsure, tell us what you’re disposing of during booking.

Often, yes. Same-day/next-day delivery is available, and same-day is most likely if you order before 10:00 a.m or early morning. 

For a small clear-out (1–2 rooms), our 4 yard skip is enough. For full room clear-out or small refurb waste, choose our 6 yard skip.

If you’re renovating and want to avoid needing a second skip, an 8 yard builder’s skip is usually the safe bet. If you’re unsure, pick the job type in the booking flow and we’ll help you choose.

On average, skip hire prices range from £245 to £750, including VAT, based on recent orders placed within the last 90 days. 

Prices depend on your postcode, skip size, access, and the type of waste.
