Skip Hire in Rochford: what to know
We cover Rochford, Ashingdon and the surrounding SS4 area for household, garden and commercial waste.
The main recent building site was west Rochford, where 620 homes at Elizabeth Gardens and Eastbury Park, off Hall Road, were finished in 2022. Stambridge Mills, a disused mill site on the River Roach, has been allocated for housing. In the conservation area, many cottages and shopfronts are listed. Traffic circulates clockwise round North Street, Weir Pond Road and East Street and one way along West Street, with only South Street two-way. Back Lane and Old Ship Lane are narrow, so skip positions and lorry access need agreeing in advance.
Permits in Rochford. Essex Highways issues skip licences here, not the district council. On your driveway or private land you need nothing. On the public road it needs a licence. Only the skip company can apply, so we do it for you. Allow 10 working days for a new licence. Size limit on the road: 6-yard maximum on the highway; anything bigger needs a driveway or private land. Enquire online and we'll confirm the permit price for your street before you book.
Will a skip fit? On the terraced streets there's rarely a drive to put a skip on and parking is tight, so the choice is a road licence or a one-visit collection. If you're not sure, send us a photo of the spot. If there is no suitable space, compare wait and load: you and your helpers load the truck during its waiting time, with our driver helping.
Tell us if the property is on a narrow street or has no driveway. A photo of the waste and the nearest place to park helps us assess the loading and carrying involved.
