Do You Need a Permit?

Whether or not you require a skip hire permit in Lancaster depends on where the skip will be positioned. If your skip will be positioned on private property like a garden, a permit is not necessary. However, if it needs to be placed on a public space, such as a pavement, or car park, you will require a permit from your local council.

Permits usually need a few days to process, so it’s necessary to apply early. The fee and duration of the permit can vary depending on the council’s requirements. If you’re unsure about the process, don’t stress—we can help with the application to make sure everything is in place for a seamless skip hire experience.
