Rules in Stockport

  • A skip on the road or pavement needs Stockport Council's permit, at £42.50 for up to 28 days.
  • A permit sought after the skip is down costs more, so the skip company applies before delivery.
  • Applications go to Stockport Council by email, and the skip company sends them.
  • You're responsible for lights and cones on a road skip, though these can usually be hired for you.
  • Bridge Street and Great Underbank close to vehicles from 10.30am, so any delivery there goes early.

Getting a skip in Stockport

In Stockport town centre, on-street parking is very limited inside the pay-and-display zone, so plan where your skip goes before you book. Bridge Street, Great Underbank and part of Little Underbank close to vehicles from 10.30am to midnight every day. Bollards shut the Market area over the same hours, and from 7am on Fridays and Saturdays. Mealhouse Brow and St Petersgate bridge are closed to through traffic for good, so check the lorry's route in. If you live in the centre, a 2 yard mini is the easiest size to fit in.

Green Lane in Heaton Norris is mainly terraced houses, and Reddish South's district centre has terraces and flats above shops. With no space off the street, your skip goes on the road under a permit the skip company arranges, and a 4 yard midi takes up the least room outside a terrace. Cheadle Village has 19th and early 20th century terraces on the north side of its shopping street. For a few bags of rubble, the Adswood Road tip in Cheadle Hulme takes it free for Greater Manchester households, which can beat hiring a skip.

Davenport's Egerton Road and Frewland Avenue conservation area has Victorian, Edwardian and 1920s and 30s houses in large gardens full of trees. A big garden clear-out there suits an 8 yard large. If you keep the skip off the road, you need no permit. Davenport Park is a private gated estate two miles south of Stockport town centre. Check the lorry can get through the gates before you book.

Questions

Do I need a permit for a skip in Stockport?
Only if it goes on the road or pavement. Stockport Council charges £42.50 for up to 28 days, and the skip company applies by email before delivery. A skip on your own drive needs none. On the road you're responsible for lights and cones at night, which can usually be hired with it.
Can a skip go on Great Underbank or Bridge Street in Stockport?
Getting a lorry in is the hard part. Bridge Street, Great Underbank and part of Little Underbank close to vehicles from 10.30am to midnight daily, with only walking, cycling and emergency access. Delivery and collection would need to be early, and the skip still needs a road permit.
Will Adswood Road take patio rubble from a Stockport job?
It takes rubble, garden waste, wood and scrap metal, free for household waste from Greater Manchester homes. A few bags in the car suit the tip. Vans and twin axle trailers need a permit there, so for a whole patio a 6 yard builders skip at £285 is simpler.
Is a skip worth it for a sofa and two beds in Stockport?
Usually not. Stockport Council collects 3 to 8 bulky items for £80, which suits a few large pieces. A skip makes more sense once the furniture comes with bags, boards and garden waste, and a 4 yard midi at £235 takes a mixed load like that.
Can I have a skip in Davenport's Egerton Road conservation area?
You can keep one in your garden with no permit. On Egerton Road or Frewland Avenue it needs the same £42.50 road permit for up to 28 days as anywhere in Stockport. The houses sit in large gardens with lots of trees, so an 8 yard large suits a garden clear-out.
