Rules in Chippenham
- A skip on a Chippenham road needs a Wiltshire Council licence costing £143.80 for 28 days.
- Allow 3 working days for the licence, as shorter notice costs more.
- If your job runs past 28 days, a new licence at the same fee is needed before the old one ends.
- The licence covers the skip only, so no sand, bricks or other materials go on the road beside it.
- At least four cones go on the approach side, with yellow lamps at night, which the skip company provides.
Getting a skip in Chippenham
In Chippenham town centre, St Paul Street has groups of Victorian terraced houses. If yours has no space off the street, your skip goes on the road under a Wiltshire Council licence at £143.80 for 28 days. Book at least 3 working days ahead, since a licence at shorter notice costs more. A 4 yard midi takes up less of the street than a larger skip. Keep everything inside it, because the licence covers the skip only, not bricks or sand left beside it on the road.
Out in Cepen Park, the estate's cul-de-sacs, including Aintree Drive, have parking on the plot. Your skip can usually sit on your drive there with no licence. Park Avenue in Monkton is a cul-de-sac with 1930s semis and driveway parking too. An 8 yard large suits a loft and garage clear-out in houses like these. In Monkton Park and Queens Crescent, built in the 1960s and 70s, parking is mixed, so check you have space off the street before you book.
A few bags of household waste can go to the Stanton St Quintin tip on Sutton Benger Road instead of a skip. You'll need to book your visit, and a van or large trailer needs a permit. Regular hedge and grass cuttings may suit Wiltshire's garden bin, at £75 a year if you register between April and August. For a bigger garden dig at one of the 1930s and 40s detached houses on Yewstock Crescent West in Hardenhuish, a 6 yard builders skip takes the soil.

Questions
- Do I need a permit for a skip in Chippenham?
- Only if it goes on the road or pavement. A skip on your drive needs none. On the road, the skip company arranges a Wiltshire Council licence at £143.80, which lasts 28 days and needs 3 working days' notice.
- Which skip works for clearing a Victorian terrace on St Paul Street?
- A 4 yard midi handles a room or two of clutter from the Victorian terraces on St Paul Street. If your house has no space off the street, the skip sits on the road under licence, and a smaller skip leaves more room for passing traffic.
- Is Chippenham's Sutton Benger Road tip enough for a small clear-out?
- For a few bags, often it is. The Stanton St Quintin centre takes household waste and recycling, but you must book before you go, and a van, pickup or large trailer needs a permit. Once the pile outgrows a car boot, a 2 yard mini saves the trips.
- Can a skip go on the drive of a Park Avenue home in Monkton?
- Often it can, because homes in the Park Avenue cul-de-sac have driveway parking. A skip on your own drive needs no licence. Measure the drive first, and an 8 yard large suits a loft and garage clear-out in a 1930s semi.
