Skip Hire in Upminster: what to know
Upminster sits at the eastern edge of Greater London, with inter-war houses on generous plots around Hall Lane and Cranham and open green belt lanes towards Corbets Tey and North Ockendon. Gerpins Lane, the Havering reuse and recycling centre, is on the southern edge of the town.
Building work here is largely domestic: loft conversions, side and rear extensions, and remodelling of the larger houses north of the station. Corbets Tey Conservation Area, designated in 1990, covers one of the three medieval settlements that formed Upminster. Cranham Conservation Area has an Article 4 Direction, so gates, walls and fences there need planning permission. Station Road, St Mary's Lane and Corbets Tey Road form the shopping area, so a skip is better placed on a drive than on those roads. The A127 is a red route, and the M25 is about 1.5 miles east.
Does a skip in Upminster need a permit? Not on your own drive or land. On the road, pavement or verge it does. Havering Council issues skip licences in Upminster. Only the skip company can apply, so we do it for you. The council publishes no fixed turnaround, so allow at least a week. Enquire online and we'll confirm the permit price for your street before you book.
Will a skip fit? For streets in Upminster with parking controls, tell us where the vehicle could stop. We need to check the loading restrictions as well as whether there is room for a skip. 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.
