Skip Hire in South Woodham Ferrers: what to know
We collect household rubbish, garden waste and builders' waste across South Woodham Ferrers in CM3.
Land north of Burnham Road is allocated for around 1,000 homes with a neighbourhood centre. Within the existing town, covenants that once required county council approval for roof lights, chimneys and garage conversions were relaxed in 2003, opening the way for that kind of alteration. Residential culs-de-sac branch from estate roads off Ferrers Road, the ring road, and houses have short or no setbacks, so it is worth confirming that a driveway can take a skip before one is ordered. Chelmsford City Council lists no conservation area for the town.
Skips on the road in South Woodham Ferrers. A driveway skip needs no paperwork; a road skip needs a licence before it's delivered. Essex Highways issues skip licences here, not the district council. 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? Roads near the front carry parking restrictions and get busy in summer, so skips there go on drives or forecourts wherever possible. 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.
For waste behind the house, tell us about side access, steps and gate widths. If you want a skip, send a photo of the driveway or the road space where it would stand.
