Rules in Cradley Heath

  • Sandwell Council's permit costs £48 and covers a skip on the road for up to 10 days.
  • Keeping the skip longer means a renewal for each further 10 days or less, at an extra fee.
  • Sandwell asks for three days' notice but usually issues the permit on the day it's applied for.
  • Only a skip company on Sandwell's register can get the permit, so you don't apply yourself.
  • A skip on a footway or verge needs council agreement and plywood or battens underneath.

Getting a skip in Cradley Heath

Cradley Heath's Victorian terraces mostly have no off-road parking, so your skip will usually go on the road under Sandwell Council's permit. Corngreaves Road is similar, with Victorian and Edwardian homes and parking on the street. A 4 yard midi takes up less of the kerb outside a terrace. Only the skip company can get the permit. The council asks for three days' notice, though it usually issues the permit on the day it gets the application. At night the skip needs four corner lamps and at least three cones, which the skip company provides.

On Brickhouse Road, The Avenue and Farm Road, the post-war council semis were built with parking on the street. Some front gardens have since been turned into parking, and if yours has, the skip can sit there with no permit. The 1960s and 70s estates in Cradley Heath have a mix of parking, so check whether you have a drive before you book. If the skip has to go on a footway or grass verge, Sandwell may allow it with plywood or battens underneath. The skip owner is responsible for any damage.

High Street in Cradley Heath has a 20mph limit and a new zebra crossing, so tell the skip company if your skip is going near it. For a sack or two of rubble, the Stourbridge tip on Birmingham Street takes up to two sacks of soil, rubble and tiles per visit at no charge. You'll need to book a car slot first. Two to four large items suit Sandwell's £25.90 bulky collection. For a bigger clear-out or heavy rubble, a 6 yard builders skip is the better choice.

Questions

Do I need a permit for a skip in Cradley Heath?
Only if it sits on the road or pavement. Sandwell Council charges £48 for up to 10 days, and only the skip company can apply. Your drive or a converted front garden needs no permit. The council asks for three days' notice but usually issues it on the day of the application.
Will a skip fit outside a Corngreaves Road home in Cradley Heath?
It usually goes on the road there. The Victorian and Edwardian homes on Corngreaves Road have parking on the street, so your skip needs Sandwell's permit. A 4 yard midi takes less kerb space than an 8 yard large, and the skip company lights it at night with four corner lamps.
Is the Stourbridge tip better than a skip for B64 rubble?
For two sacks or fewer, it is. The Birmingham Street tip takes up to two sacks of soil, rubble and tiles per visit at no charge, but it takes car bookings only, with no vans. More than a few trips' worth suits a 6 yard builders skip at £255.
Should Sandwell collect a sofa and wardrobe from Cradley Heath?
For two to four bulky items, the council collection at £25.90 is the simpler choice. You get a provisional date when you start the form and confirm it once it's complete. A skip makes more sense when furniture comes out alongside a room's worth of other waste.
How much does a skip cost in Cradley Heath, B64?
Skips in B64 start at £105. A 4 yard midi is £175 and an 8 yard large is £245. Add Sandwell's £48 permit if the skip goes on the road, which covers up to 10 days.
