Rules in Salisbury

  • A Wiltshire Council skip licence costs £143.80 and lasts up to 28 days.
  • Allow 3 working days' notice for the council to issue the licence.
  • Keeping the skip on the road past its licence period needs the council's written agreement.
  • At least four traffic cones go on the road on the approach side of the skip.
  • The licence covers the skip only, so building materials can't sit on the road beside it.

Getting a skip in Salisbury

In the Eastern Chequers, Salisbury's old street pattern puts houses in continuous rows at the back of the pavement, with no front gardens and parking on the street. Your skip goes on the road there, so the skip company arranges the Wiltshire Council permit, £143.80 for 28 days. A 4 yard midi takes up less of a narrow street and still holds a bathroom strip-out. Windsor Road is lined with terraces of smaller houses too, so check for space off the street before you book.

On the eastern side of the city, the Milford Hill Conservation Area has small two-storey terraces on Rampart Road and Tollgate Road. Bourne Avenue has detached houses, and Elm Grove Road has large houses in generous grounds. If your house has a drive or room in its grounds, the skip can sit there with no permit, and an 8 yard large suits a big clear-out. On the terraces, plan for a road permit and a smaller skip.

Much of the city falls inside the large Salisbury City Conservation Area. Across the cheaper streets, late Victorian terraces front straight onto the pavement and parking is tight, so plan for the road there. Out at Shady Bower and on the modern estates, parking is mixed. Check your drive first, since a skip on it needs no permit. For a few bags, the Stephenson Road tip in Churchfields beats a skip, but you book your visit ahead.

Questions

Do I need a permit for a skip in Salisbury?
Only if it goes on the road or pavement. Wiltshire Council's skip licence costs £143.80 for 28 days and needs 3 working days' notice. The skip company applies for it. On your own drive or land, no permit is needed.
What size skip suits a Rampart Road terrace in Salisbury?
A 4 yard midi is a good fit. Rampart Road and Tollgate Road are rows of small two-storey terraced houses, so if there's no space off the street, a smaller skip suits the road. Heavy rubble from a yard goes in a 6 yard builders skip or smaller.
Should a few bags in SP2 go to the Churchfields tip instead?
Often they should. The Salisbury Household Recycling Centre on Stephenson Road takes household waste and recycling, but you must book your visit first. It's closed on Thursdays all year, and a van, pickup or large trailer needs a permit. A full room or a refit still suits a skip.
How long can a skip stay on a Salisbury road?
Up to 28 days on one licence. After that, the skip can only stay if Wiltshire Council agrees in writing, so ask the skip company to arrange more time before the period ends. At night it needs yellow lamps at each corner, which the skip company provides.
