- Each licence lasts 7 days, and the council needs at least 1 working day to review an extension.

Getting a skip in Crewe
In Crewe, the Victorian terraces close to the town centre and railway station were built as railway housing, including Betley Street and Dorfold Street. Chester Street's row of nine cottages and Victoria Street's row of eight houses date from the railway's early years. If your terrace has no drive, your skip goes on the road and needs a licence. A 4 yard midi suits clearing one of these houses and takes up less of the street than a bigger skip.
Parts of Crewe have resident parking schemes. Zone H around Prestbury Road covers Riseley Street, Hope Street West, Walker Street, Sharpley Street, Boothby Street and Grosvenor Street. Zone R takes in Hungerford Terrace, Fernbank Close and Lyncroft Close. If your skip has to stand in a marked bay on one of these streets, you'll need a paid parking bay suspension as well as the licence. Allow time for both before the skip arrives.
For a small job you may not need a skip at all. Pyms Lane tip takes up to two 50 litre bags of rubble free per visit, up to four visits a month. Cheshire East collects one to three large items for £50.84, within 20 working days of payment. For a bathroom or kitchen strip-out, a 6 yard builders skip takes heavy rubble, and an 8 yard large suits lighter, bulkier waste from clearing a 1930s semi.

Questions
- Do I need a permit for a skip in Crewe?
- Only if it goes on the road, the pavement or an adopted verge. A skip on your own drive needs nothing. Cheshire East's licence costs £47 per week, and only skip operators can apply, so the skip company arranges it at least 2 working days ahead.
- Can a skip go on Riseley Street or Walker Street in Crewe?
- It can, with a licence. Both streets are in the zone H resident parking scheme around Prestbury Road. If the skip has to stand in a marked bay, you'll need a paid parking bay suspension first, on top of the £47 weekly licence.
- How much DIY rubble will the Pyms Lane tip in Crewe take free?
- Up to two 50 litre rubble bags per visit, or one bulky item no bigger than 2m by 75cm by 70cm. Each household gets four free visits a month. More rubble than that needs a 6 yard builders skip at £260.
- For a bed and sofa in CW2, is the bulky collection better?
- Usually it is. Cheshire East collects one to three items for £50.84, within 20 working days of payment. A 2 yard mini at £110 makes more sense if you also have garden or DIY rubbish to clear at the same time.
