Rules in Sandbach

  • A skip on the road, pavement or an adopted verge needs a Cheshire East licence at £47 per week.
  • Only the skip company can apply, and it must do so at least 2 working days ahead.
  • Each licence covers 7 days, and an extension needs at least 1 working day to review.
  • A skip in a parking bay needs a paid bay suspension before it goes down.
  • The council can set conditions on where the skip stands and ask for lights, cones or markings.

Getting a skip in Sandbach

Sandbach town centre is ringed by rows of terraces. On Elworth Street the Victorian terraced homes park on the street, so with no drive your skip goes on the road under a licence the skip company gets. A 2 yard mini or 4 yard midi keeps it compact. Chapel Street has marked residents' bays, and Bath Street, Church Street, Front Street and Hawk Street have residents' permits for some homes. If your skip has to stand in a parking bay, you'll need a paid bay suspension first.

Beyond the terraces, Sandbach spreads into 20th century suburbs and estates. Around Park Lane, homes park on drives at the front and side, so your skip can sit there with no permit, and an 8 yard large suits a loft or garage clear-out. The smaller two and three-bed terraces there share little parking courts, so check where the skip can stand before you book. Anwyl Homes is building 204 homes on land south of Old Mill Road, and a further 452 are proposed at Houndings Lane.

Small loads are easier without a skip. Alsager tip, off Hassall Road, takes two 50 litre bags of rubble free per visit, up to four visits a month, and the council collects one to three large items for £50.84. When you're lifting a whole patio or clearing a room in Sandbach, a 4 yard midi or 6 yard builders skip saves you the trips.

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

Questions

Do I need a permit for a skip in Sandbach?
Only if it goes on the road, the pavement or a verge adopted by Cheshire East Highways. The skip company applies for you at £47 per week, at least 2 working days ahead. A skip on your own drive needs nothing. Leaving one out without a licence brings a charge on top of the application fee.
Will Chapel Street's residents' bays stop me having a Sandbach skip?
They won't, but they add a step. A skip in one of Chapel Street's residents' bays needs a paid parking bay suspension first, as well as the road licence the skip company gets. Ask for a 2 yard mini or 4 yard midi if the space is tight.
Is a skip worth hiring for a small Sandbach patio repair?
Not for a couple of bags. Alsager tip, off Hassall Road, takes two 50 litre bags of rubble or one bulky item free, up to four visits a month. For a whole patio, a 4 yard midi or 6 yard builders skip saves you the trips.
Will the council take a wardrobe and bed from my Elworth home?
It will, for £50.84 covering one to three items, collected within 20 working days of payment. That beats a skip for a couple of big pieces. If you're clearing a whole room with bags and boxes too, a 4 yard midi takes the lot in one go.
