Getting a skip in Newcastle-under-Lyme

A 2 yard mini or 4 yard midi is the easy pick for the late 19th century terraces on Well Street and Garden Street in Newcastle-under-Lyme town centre. Parking there is on the street only. That puts the skip on the road with a county permit, which the skip company applies for. Queen Street and King Street are different. The Georgian houses there sit on spacious plots with mature trees, so look for room on your own land before you book.

Out in Knutton, the old terraced cottages east of the High Street have parking on the street, so a skip there needs the road permit. West of the High Street, the estates built since the 1960s have mixed parking, and a skip on your own drive needs no permit. Cross Heath is similar, with semis from between the wars on its edge. On Beresford Crescent in Westlands, the 1930s semis line a wide, tree-lined avenue, and an 8 yard large takes a full house clearance.

For a few bags of rubble, Newcastle Recycling Centre on Leycett Lane takes the first two bags free, then charges per bag, so a small job may not need a skip. The council collects one to three large items for £62, and a garden waste bin costs £43.50 a year. For a patio or a kitchen strip-out, you'll want a skip, and a 6 yard builders is the biggest size for heavy rubble and soil.

Questions

Will a skip outside my Newcastle-under-Lyme house need a permit?
Only if it goes on the road or pavement. The skip company applies to Staffordshire County Council, and the permit costs £42 for up to 14 days, or 7 days on an A, B or C road. A skip on your own drive needs no permit.
Can a skip go outside a Well Street terrace in Newcastle?
It can, on the road with a permit. The late 19th century terraces on Well Street and Garden Street have parking on the street only. A 2 yard mini or 4 yard midi takes up less space, and the council aims to issue the permit within 5 working days.
Is Leycett Lane tip enough for a small ST5 patio job?
Often, for a small job. Newcastle Recycling Centre on Leycett Lane takes the first two bags of rubble or soil free, then charges per bag. A van or trailer needs a tip permit there. For a whole patio, a 6 yard builders skip at £285 saves the trips.
Is the council's bulky collection better than a skip in ST5?
For one to three items, it usually is. Newcastle-under-Lyme Council collects up to three non-reusable items for £62. With more furniture, or bags of rubbish as well, a 4 yard midi at £190 takes the lot in one go.
What skip suits a 1930s semi on Beresford Crescent, Westlands?
A 4 yard midi suits a loft or garage clear-out, and an 8 yard large takes a full house clearance. Beresford Crescent is a wide, tree-lined avenue of 1930s semis in Westlands, about a mile from the town centre. A skip on your own drive needs no permit.
