Rules in Ringwood
- A skip on the road needs Hampshire's permit, which costs £78.80 for 7 days.
- Allow at least five clear working days between the application and the day the skip arrives.
- Fast track costs extra, and the council aims to issue it within 1 working day.

- On the road, a skip needs three cones on the approaching side and amber lamps at each corner, lit after dark.
Getting a skip in Ringwood
In Ringwood's Victorian and Edwardian quarter, the redbrick terraces and semi-detached houses stand at the back of the pavement or behind small walled front gardens. Parking is on the street. With no drive, your skip goes on the road under Hampshire's permit, so a 4 yard midi keeps it compact. Hightown Road changes along its length. Near Christchurch Road it has early Victorian terraces. Further out, the detached and semi-detached homes sit back behind gardens and hedges. Check whether yours has room off the street for an 8 yard large, which then needs no permit.
Ringwood has had a conservation area since 1999. The old centre is West Street, Market Place and High Street, where rows of shops line the street around Friday's Cross. Narrow lanes and alleys link these streets to the car parks, and many are walking routes only, so a skip lorry can't use them. On The Quomp and Woodstock Lane the low terraces have tile-hung upper floors, and The Quomp climbs a rise. Tell the skip company your exact street and where the skip can stand.
For a few bags of rubble, the Somerley tip on Verwood Road is the better choice. You can take up to eight 50-litre rubble sacks free every 4 weeks, but you must book a visit. A bigger job suits a 6 yard builders skip, which takes heavy soil and rubble. New homes are planned at Moortown Lane and north of Hightown Road. If you move into one, a 2 yard mini handles the packing and garden leftovers.

Questions
- When does a Ringwood skip need a road permit?
- Only when it sits on the road or pavement. On your own drive it needs none. For the road, the skip company applies to Hampshire County Council, which charges £78.80 for 7 days and needs five clear working days' notice.
- Can a skip go on Market Place or West Street in Ringwood?
- Ask the skip company before you book. West Street, Market Place and High Street are the old centre, with rows of shops lining the street around Friday's Cross and narrow alleys that are walking routes only. A masterplan also proposes taking parking out of Market Place, so give your exact spot.
- Is a BH24 skip worth it for a small rubble pile?
- Often not. The Somerley tip on Verwood Road takes up to eight 50-litre rubble sacks free in each 4-week period, with a charge for each sack above that. You must book a visit, and a van needs Hampshire's digital van permit.
- What size skip suits a terrace on The Quomp in Ringwood?
- A 4 yard midi suits a refit there. The Quomp and Woodstock Lane have low terraces with tile-hung upper floors, and The Quomp climbs a rise. If there's no room off the street, the skip goes on the road under the permit. A rubble job needs a 6 yard builders or smaller.
- Can I keep a Ringwood skip on the road for two weeks?
- Only with a second permit. Hampshire issues skip permits for 7 days and doesn't extend them, so a longer job needs a new application with its own fees. Ask the skip company to apply for the full period from the start.
