SteveUK1978 Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 Does anyone know what the rules are for putting a skip on a road in ED that otherwise has no parking restrictions? I presume there is the requirement for a permit (that probably never gets done), but if done by the book, does any permit state where in the street it can or must be located. A loaded question given what has silently appeared outside our door today.

mancity68 Posted February 9, 2015 Share Posted February 9, 2015 And just in case you have same problems we've had with skips - companies are not allowed to deliver or collect them before 8am. We had one firm dropping skips off and collecting at 645, really antisocial and noisy. The team at Southwark were great at listening to complaints and stopping the firms concerned. But do please complain if you have same problems! Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/54299-skips-on-the-road/#findComment-821888 Share on other sites More sharing options...
worldwiser Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 I'm gratified to see that, in theory, the skip licensing requirements are reasonably onerous. ?66 per 4 weeks.

JoeGoodwin Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 In case you never thought of it something I sometimes use is called Hippobag. You fill the bag to the maximum amount, call them up and they generally collect it the same day. If you have not got too much waste they are a good alternative to skips but they can get quite costly so use with caution.

grace3 Posted February 11, 2015 Share Posted February 11, 2015 A permit is not negotiable, no skip company will supply without one. Count yourself lucky that you are not living in Lambeth .

Bluerevolution Posted February 12, 2015 Share Posted February 12, 2015 When we've had skips the skip firm has sorted licence, you just pay for it Link to comment https://www.eastdulwichforum.co.uk/topic/54299-skips-on-the-road/#findComment-822801 Share on other sites More sharing options...
