Chesterfield Skip Hire

Skips placed on private property don't require permits. For skips on public roads in Chesterfield, Derbyshire County Council issues permits. We handle the application process. Permits typically take 2-3 working days to process. Some roads around St Mary's Gate and West Bars have time restrictions for skip placement due to traffic flow. The council charges £35 for a standard 14-day skip permit in Chesterfield town centre.

You can't place hazardous materials in standard skips. This includes asbestos, chemicals, paint tins, electrical items, tyres, batteries, gas bottles and plasterboard. Most household and construction waste is acceptable. Garden waste, old furniture, rubble, soil and kitchen units can all go in. For restricted items, Chesterfield residents can use the recycling centre on Stonegravels Lane. Old fridges and freezers need specialist collection, which we can arrange separately from standard skip hire.

For small garden clearances, a 2-yard skip holds 25-35 black bin bags. Home renovations of Chesterfield's 1930s semi-detached houses often need 6-yard skips. Builders working on the new housing development at Dunston usually hire 8-yard skips. Kitchen renovations generally produce more waste than bathroom refits. Some customers in Wingerworth and Brimington hire 4-yard skips for clearing garages. The waste from replacing an old concrete driveway normally fills a 10-yard skip.

Standard hire is for 14 days. You can extend this if needed. Tell us when the skip is full, and we'll collect it. For skip hire on Chatsworth Road or near Chesterfield Royal Hospital, we aim to collect promptly due to space limitations. December and January are busy periods for skip hire in Chesterfield with post-Christmas clearouts. Some commercial customers in Clay Cross keep skips for weekly collection. We deliver skips between 7am and 5pm on weekdays, with limited Saturday deliveries in Staveley area.

Our lorries need 3.5 metres width clearance. The older terraced streets in Brampton can be difficult for skip delivery. Steep hills in Newbold sometimes limit where skips can be placed safely. For properties near Chesterfield Football Stadium, we avoid deliveries on match days. Some narrow lanes around Bolsover Castle area require smaller vehicles. Front gardens on Ashgate Road are often too small for larger skips. Let us know about gates, low-hanging trees or narrow driveways when booking. Skips can't be placed within 10 metres of junctions or on double yellow lines without specific council approval.
