Skip Hire Romford Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a permit for skip placement in Romford?
Skips placed on private property like driveways don't need permits. For skips on Romford public roads, Havering Council requires a permit. We sort this paperwork for you. Processing usually takes 2-3 working days. The council adds the permit cost to your final invoice. Some Romford streets have placement restrictions due to traffic considerations.
What waste types can go in my skip?
Most household and building waste is acceptable in our skips. This includes garden clippings, old furniture, wood offcuts, broken toys, and general rubbish. You cannot put hazardous materials in skips - things like asbestos, chemicals, paint tins, fridges, TVs, tyres, gas bottles or batteries. Waste shouldn't stick up past the top of the skip. The council waste facility in Gerpins Lane won't accept overloaded skips.
How do I choose the right skip size?
Small garden clearances or single-room clearouts in Romford typically need 2-4 yard skips. Kitchen renovations work well with 6-8 yard skips. Larger projects like loft conversions common in Romford's Victorian properties require 10-12 yard options. Bulky items take up more space than you might expect. Some Romford driveways can't fit larger skips due to access issues. If you're clearing a typical three-bedroom semi in Gidea Park, an 8-yard skip is usually sufficient.
What is the normal hire period for skips?
Standard hire runs for 7-14 days. This suits most household jobs in Romford. Longer periods cost a bit more. Let us know when you're finished so we can collect the skip. Local traffic in areas like Main Road or Romford town centre sometimes affects delivery times. We try to deliver within a morning or afternoon slot rather than an exact time. Saturday deliveries in Romford need booking by Thursday.
How is skip waste processed after collection?
Skip contents go to our sorting facility after collection. Workers separate recyclable materials like metal, wood and cardboard. About 80% of waste from Romford skips gets recycled rather than going to landfill. The sorting process takes place at our Rainham waste transfer station. Heavy materials like soil and concrete get processed separately from lighter waste. Non-recyclable items go to approved disposal sites in line with Essex waste regulations.
