Permits across two highway authorities

Which council issues your permit depends on the address, not the postcode town. Inside the city boundary it is Nottingham City Council. In Beeston (Broxtowe), Arnold (Gedling) and West Bridgford (Rushcliffe) it is Nottinghamshire County Council, which handles skip permits for those districts. The two councils set their own fees and rules.

The skip company applies for the permit whichever authority it falls under. In the county area, Nottinghamshire County Council charges £52 per application for a permit of up to 7 days. Ask whether the cost is included in their price.

Choosing a size

Student-let turnarounds around Lenton and Dunkirk produce high volumes of light, bulky waste, which is what a 12 yard is for on private land. Garden and driveway work in the suburbs is the opposite: dense, heavy, and better suited to a 4 or 6 yard even when there is space for something larger.

If you are unsure, the size guide works it out from the waste rather than the job.
