Rules in Tetbury

  • A skip on a Tetbury road needs a Gloucestershire County Council permit at £90 for 28 days.
  • The council takes twelve calendar days to process a new application once it has payment and documents.
  • Extensions are issued per extra 7 days, for a further fee on top of the first 28.
  • A renewal must be applied for within the current licence period, for the same skip size and spot.
  • An urgent or retrospective permit carries a non-refundable extra fee, so book well ahead.

Getting a skip in Tetbury

Book early if your Tetbury skip has to go on the road. New permit applications take twelve calendar days, and the skip company applies for you. Plan carefully on West Street. Parked cars there leave a gap of less than 2m at its narrowest point, and a skip on the road narrows it further. If your job is small, a 2 yard mini takes up the least space. Long Street has loading restrictions, so tell the skip company your street when you book and it can plan the drop.

Northfield is different. Its big two and three storey houses sit back from a wide road behind long front gardens, so you may have room for an 8 yard large off the street with no permit needed. Most of the newer homes at The Dormers on Cirencester Road have their own drive, while a few share a parking area. The Northfield Garage homes on London Road have garages and allocated parking. Check your space before you book.

The new estates along the old Cirencester Road are built closer together, so check whether your parking is shared before a skip arrives. If you only have a sofa and a couple of other big pieces, Cotswold Council collects up to three items for £29, which beats a skip. For a kitchen refit or a garden dig with soil and rubble, a 6 yard builders skip is the biggest size to load with heavy waste.

Questions

Do I need a permit for a skip in Tetbury?
Only if it goes on the road or pavement. A skip on your drive needs none. On the road, the skip company gets a Gloucestershire County Council permit at £90 for 28 days, and new applications take twelve calendar days, so book early.
Can a skip go on West Street in Tetbury?
It can, but space is short. At its narrowest point, parked cars leave less than 2m for passing traffic. A 2 yard mini or 4 yard midi takes up less of the road, and the skip company arranges the permit if there's no room off the street.
Is Cotswold's bulky collection better than a skip for a Tetbury sofa?
For up to three large items, usually it is. Cotswold Council collects them for £29. Once you add carpets, bags of rubbish or a garden clear-out, a 4 yard midi from £255 takes the lot in one go.
Can a GL8 road permit be extended for a longer refit?
It can, if the skip company renews it before it runs out. The council only accepts a renewal within the current licence period, for the same skip size and spot, through the online form with the existing permit number. Each extension covers 7 days for an extra fee.
Does a green bin suit Tetbury garden waste better than a skip?
For regular hedge and lawn cuttings, it does. Cotswold Council's garden waste licence costs £73 a year. For a one-off clearance of a long Northfield front garden, a 4 yard midi or 8 yard large clears it in one go.
