Getting a skip in Drayton

On Drayton's Church Lane, Henleys Lane and Gravel Lane, the road is much narrower than the High Street or Abingdon Road. If your house there has no drive, your skip goes on the road under the county licence. A narrow lane leaves less room beside it, so a 2 yard mini or 4 yard midi is the easier fit. The old centre around the church is the Drayton Conservation Area, so tell the skip company exactly where you are when you book.

West of the B4017, Drayton grew in the 1950s and 60s, and the Hilliat Fields and Whitehorns Way estates sit on that side of the village. Steventon Road at the southern entrance is mostly semi-detached houses set along a regular building line. If your drive has room, a skip there needs no licence at all. A 6 yard builders takes the heavy rubble from a kitchen or bathroom strip-out, while an 8 yard large suits bulkier, lighter clearance waste.

Drayton's own recycling centre is on Steventon Road. You need to book a visit, and rubble or soil is charged by the 20-litre bag, so a few bags are better taken there. For up to three big items, the Vale of White Horse bulky collection from £62.50 can beat a skip. A bigger job, such as clearing one of the older houses in Sutton Wick, where at least half date from the 1800s or earlier, is one for a skip.

Other ways to get rid of it in Drayton

For one or two items, the council is often cheaper than a skip. Here’s how they compare.

Fly-tipping in Drayton

£1,000 fixed penalty

Council-wide figures, not just Drayton.

Nobody wants fly-tipping in Drayton. Whoever takes your waste, make sure they’re a licensed waste carrier. The skip companies on this site all are.

By law you’re responsible for your waste even after it’s collected. If it’s dumped and traced back to you, you can be fined.

Questions

Do I need a permit for a skip in Drayton?
Only if it goes on the road or pavement. Oxfordshire County Council licenses it at £125 for 7 days off a bus route, and the skip company applies at least five working days ahead. A skip on your own drive needs no licence.
Will a skip fit on Church Lane in Drayton?
A small one is the safer choice. Church Lane is much narrower than the High Street, and houses line both sides. With no drive, a 2 yard mini or 4 yard midi on the road takes up the least room. Tell the skip company which house so they can check access.
Is the Steventon Road tip better than a skip for Drayton rubble?
For a few bags, it is. The Drayton recycling centre charges by the 20-litre bag for bricks, rubble and soil, and you must book your visit first. Once the bags start to pile up, a 4 yard midi or 6 yard builders skip saves the trips.
Should I book the council's bulky collection for a sofa in OX14?
Often, for a sofa on its own. The Vale of White Horse bulky collection costs from £62.50 and covers up to three items, so a sofa and two chairs fit in one booking. If you're clearing a whole room too, a skip takes everything in one go.
