Do You Need a Permit?

Whether or not you have to obtain a skip hire permit in Sunderland depends on where the skip will be positioned. If your skip will be positioned on private property like a driveway, a permit isn’t required. However, if it needs to be placed on public property, such as a road, or parking bay, you will have to obtain a permit from your local council.

Permits usually require a few days to process, so it’s essential to be prepared. The cost and validity of the permit can change depending on the council’s rules. If you’re unsure about the process, don’t be concerned—we can help with the application to make sure everything is in place for a smooth skip hire experience.
