Getting a skip in Amesbury

In Amesbury town centre, Earls Court Road, Parsonage Road and Edwards Road have rows of older terraced cottages. If your cottage has no space off the street, the skip goes on the road under a Wiltshire Council licence, which the skip company arranges. A 4 yard midi suits a cottage refit and takes up less of the road than the bigger sizes.

Round Kitchener Road, The Drove and Beacon Close, the homes are mainly bungalows built between 1957 and 1975. If your drive takes the skip, it needs no licence. An 8 yard large suits emptying a bungalow, and a 6 yard builders takes heavy rubble from a patio. Holders Road and James Road have houses from the 1920s to the 1970s, many of them council-built, so check your drive there too.

For a few car loads, the Amesbury recycling centre on Mills Way at Boscombe Down Business Park is close by. It shuts on Tuesday and Wednesday, and you need a permit to bring a van or large trailer. If you're moving into Kings Gate, the new estate planned for 1,300 homes, a 4 yard midi takes the boxes and garden leftovers in one go.

Questions

Do I need a permit for a skip in Amesbury?
Only if it goes on the road or pavement. On your own drive it needs nothing. On the road, the skip company buys a Wiltshire Council licence at £143.80 for 28 days, giving 3 working days' notice.
What size skip suits a bungalow off Kitchener Road in Amesbury?
An 8 yard large suits a full bungalow clear-out round Kitchener Road, The Drove and Beacon Close, where the homes are mainly bungalows from 1957 to 1975. For rubble from a patio, pick a 6 yard builders or smaller, at £365.
When is the Amesbury tip better than a skip for SP4 clear-outs?
For a few bags you can fit in a car. The Mills Way centre at Boscombe Down is close, but it shuts on Tuesday and Wednesday, and a van or large trailer needs a permit. Beyond a couple of car loads, a 2 yard mini at £165 saves the trips.
Can my skip stay longer than 28 days in Amesbury?
Only if Wiltshire Council grants more time in writing. Without that, the skip has to come off the road when the 28 day licence ends. A skip on your own drive needs no licence, so the 28 days don't apply there.
Which skip clears packing and garden waste at Kings Gate, Amesbury?
A 4 yard midi at £270 takes boxes, packaging and turf from a new garden. Kings Gate is the town's new estate, planned for 1,300 homes. If your new drive is free, the skip sits there with no licence. Pick a 6 yard builders for heavy soil.
