Skip Hire Barking Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit for skip hire in Barking?
Skips placed on public roads in Barking need a permit from the council. We handle the permit application, which takes 2-3 days to process. The council charge for permits is added to your quote. Skip placement on private land like driveways doesn't require permits. Residents near Barking station sometimes need additional parking permissions due to controlled parking zones.
What waste can't go in skips?
Certain materials can't go in standard skips due to waste regulations. These include asbestos, paint tins, gas bottles, tyres, electrical items and batteries. Most household rubbish, garden waste, furniture, soil and building materials are acceptable. Barking's commercial areas often produce waste that needs sorting before disposal. If you're clearing a property on Thames View estate, remember that plasterboard needs separate disposal.
Which skip size works for different projects?
A 4-yard skip suits small garden clearances and holds about 50 bin bags. Kitchen renovations in typical Barking terraced houses often need 6-yard skips. The 8-yard skip is common for house clearances in Becontree. Building projects at Barking Riverside development typically use 12-yard skips. Commercial premises on River Road industrial area usually require 14-16 yard skips for business waste.
How long is the hire period?
Standard hire is 7 days, though this can vary. Some Creekmouth commercial customers keep skips for 14 days for ongoing projects. Let us know when you're finished and we'll collect within 1-2 days. Collection times depend on traffic conditions around the A13 and North Circular. Weekend collections in residential areas like Upney can sometimes take longer due to parked cars restricting access.
What access is needed for delivery?
Delivery lorries need 3 metres width for safe access. Narrow streets in older parts of Barking sometimes present challenges. The skip needs a firm, level surface - some properties near Barking Park have sloping drives that can be unsuitable. Height clearance of 4 metres is needed for the lifting mechanism. Skips for businesses around Ripple Road may need to be delivered outside of busy shopping hours. We can't block emergency access routes in residential developments.
