Getting a skip in Telford

On the Woodside estate in Telford, the mainly terraced houses face green spaces and footpaths rather than roads, so your front door may be some way from where a lorry can stop. Woodside, Sutton Hill and Brookside were built in the late 1960s, many as timber-framed houses. Parking there is mixed. If you have no drive, the skip goes on the road with a permit the skip company arranges. A 4 yard midi is easier to fill when you carry each load along a footpath.

In Madeley, a Restricted Parking Zone covers parts of Park Lane and Hollybush Road and the whole of Weybridge, cul-de-sacs included, at all times outside signed bays. Tell the skip company your street when you book so it can plan where the skip stands. Also in Madeley, Russell Road's two-storey red-brick cottages sit behind railings, so check there's room off the street before you book. For a sofa and a few other large items, the council collects two to six items for £45, which can beat hiring a skip.

For a few bags of rubble or a car boot of garden waste, Hortonwood 50 and Halesfield 1 both take soil and rubble, as long as you bring proof of a Telford and Wrekin address. Garden cuttings can also go in the council's green bin, which is collected all year at no charge. For a bigger job, such as a kitchen refit in Wellington, a 6 yard builders skip takes the heavy waste. Lorries can't turn left from Station Road into Church Street there, so give the skip company your exact address.

Questions

Do I need a permit for a skip in Telford?
Only if it goes on the road or pavement. A skip on your drive needs none. Telford and Wrekin Council issues licences only to licensed skip operators, so the skip company applies. It costs £100 for up to 7 days and takes 10 clear working days.
Can a skip go on Park Lane or Weybridge in Madeley?
Check before you book, because a Restricted Parking Zone applies at all times, outside signed bays, on parts of Park Lane and Hollybush Road and across Weybridge, cul-de-sacs included. Give the skip company your exact street so it can plan where the skip stands. A skip on your own drive avoids the zone.
Should TF7 patio rubble go to Halesfield 1 or in a skip?
For a few bags, the tip. Halesfield 1 in TF7 and Hortonwood 50 in TF1 both take soil and rubble from residents with proof of a Telford and Wrekin address. A trailer needs an e-permit. For a whole patio, a 6 yard builders skip at £230 saves the trips.
Will Telford and Wrekin collect a wardrobe and bed from my house?
They will, for £45 covering two to six items. That makes the council's bulky collection the better choice for a few large pieces of furniture. If you're also clearing boxes, carpets and garden rubbish, a 4 yard midi at £170 holds the lot.
Do I need a skip for garden waste in Telford?
Not usually for hedge trimmings and grass. Telford and Wrekin runs a green bin collection all year with no charge to residents, and both tips take garden waste. A skip makes sense when you're clearing a whole overgrown garden with soil and roots.
