Working on a Scottish property or site? Choose its town to see the permit authority, then call with the delivery address and the job schedule.
Elsewhere in the UK? Call with your postcode to discuss your project. The Scottish permit guidance on these pages does not replace the rules for other UK nations.
Sort the position before the delivery.
In Scotland, a skip entirely on private land does not need a road skip permit. Road placement needs the relevant authority’s permission before delivery.
- Private spaceConfirm the landowner’s permission, a suitable surface and clear vehicle access.
- Public roadAgree the application responsibility and wait for permission before the skip arrives.
- Dates and parkingCheck the hire and collection dates against the permit period. Ask about any separate parking suspension.
Your council sets the conditions.
There is no single Scottish fee or notice period. Check who applies, how long permission lasts and whether parking or traffic arrangements need separate approval.

How much will my skip cost?
A trade quote needs a waste plan: materials, estimated load, site address and collection or exchange needs. Call 0330 912 9966 to discuss those details before booking.
How long can I keep the skip?
If work happens in stages, explain that before booking. Agree when the container is needed, how collection is requested and whether an exchange can be arranged.
Can I fill it above the sides?
No. Keep everything at or below the marked fill line and within the agreed load. If the pile is larger than expected, call to discuss the next step rather than overfilling.
Will a small skip fit through a small gate?
A site entrance that admits a van may not suit the skip vehicle. Discuss gate openings, turning space and any restrictions before giving a delivery instruction.
