Rules in Oldbury

  • A skip on the road needs Sandwell Council's £48 permit, which lasts up to 10 days.
  • For longer hire, the skip company must make a further application for each extra 10 days or less.
  • Sandwell asks for 3 days' notice but generally issues skip permits on the day it gets them.
  • Your skip company applies for the Sandwell road permit, so you don't have to.
  • At night a road skip needs four corner lamps and at least three hazard cones.

Getting a skip in Oldbury

Oldbury's Victorian terraces sit close to the town centre, and Rood End, in the east near Smethwick, is Edwardian and late-Victorian. Check whether your house has room off the street before you book. If it doesn't, the skip sits on the road and the skip company gets Sandwell's permit, which lasts up to 10 days. Clearing one of these older houses room by room often suits a 4 yard midi. Most of the town centre falls inside the Oldbury Church Square Conservation Area, which centres on Church Square and Unity Place.

Towards Langley and Brandhall, Oldbury's 1930s avenues are wide and tree-lined. Perry Hill Road has three-bedroom semi-detached homes. If you have a drive, a skip there needs no permit, and a 6 yard builders skip is the largest to fill with rubble or soil. Sandwell may let a skip sit on a footway or grass verge if the surface is protected with wooden battens or plywood. Moat Road, Wolverhampton Road and Brookfields Road are red routes, where stopping is allowed only in marked boxes, so tell the skip company if you live on one.

A few bags of rubble may not need a skip at all. Sandwell's tip on Shidas Lane in Oldbury takes hard-core, soil and plasterboard, up to eight bags or 200kg of each a month, and you book a slot first. Two to four bulky items can go on the council's collection for £25.90. Anything bigger needs a skip, and the price check shows each size. Once a job outgrows the tip's monthly limit, a 2 yard mini is the smallest you can hire.

Questions

Do I need a permit for a skip in Oldbury, B68 or B69?
Only if it sits on the road, pavement or verge. Sandwell Council's permit costs £48 for up to 10 days, and only a registered skip company can apply. A skip on your own drive in B68 or B69 needs none.
Can a skip lorry stop on Oldbury red routes in B68 or B69?
Only in a marked box. Moat Road is a red route, where stopping or parking is not allowed except in marked boxes for parking and loading. Tell the skip company your street when you book so it can plan where the skip goes.
How much rubble will Shidas Lane tip take from Oldbury, B68 or B69?
Up to eight bags or 200kg a month of hard-core and rubble, and soil has the same limit. You must book a slot, and vans or trailers get one booking every four weeks. For more than that, a 6 yard builders skip or smaller takes heavy waste.
Are two old wardrobes in Oldbury, B68 or B69 a job for the council?
Most likely. Sandwell Council collects 2 to 4 bulky items for £25.90, and you get a provisional date when you start the form. A skip makes more sense once the furniture comes with a room's worth of other waste.
Which part of Oldbury B68 or B69 is in a conservation area?
Most of the town centre. The Oldbury Church Square Conservation Area centres on Church Square and Unity Place, with early to mid-19th-century buildings. A skip on the road there needs the Sandwell permit, which the skip company arranges.
