Rules in West Bromwich

  • Sandwell Council's road permit costs £48 and covers up to 10 days.
  • Longer hires need a renewal for each further 10 days or less, at an extra fee.
  • Sandwell asks for 3 days' notice, though permits usually come through on the day of application.
  • Only a registered skip company can get the permit, so you can't apply yourself.
  • A skip on a footway or grass verge needs council permission and boards underneath to protect the surface.

Getting a skip in West Bromwich

In West Bromwich, the town-centre fringe and Greets Green in B70 are lined with Victorian and Edwardian terraces. The town's terraces from around 1880 to 1910 have short front gardens, so your skip will usually sit on the road under the council permit. A 4 yard midi leaves more of the street free. On Edward Street, the southwest side has semi-detached and detached houses, while the northeast side is mostly terraced. Towards the Great Barr edge in B43, homes are larger semis and detached houses, so check whether yours has room off the road.

Several West Bromwich streets sit in a residents zone, including Barton Street, Chapman Way, Edith Drive, Wesley Close, Richard Street South and Richard Street West. On Sandwell Road, part of the street is shared-use residents parking from 8am to 6pm, Monday to Saturday. Lodge Road, Grange Road and Edward Street lie within a conservation area in the town centre, and Bratt Street's Saints' Houses are in the High Street Conservation Area. Only the skip company can get the permit, so give it your street and any zone when you book.

For a few bags of rubble, Sandwell's tip on Shidas Lane in Oldbury takes hard-core, soil and plasterboard up to eight bags or 200kg a month each, if you book. For two to four bulky items, the council's collection at £25.90 is the simpler choice. A kitchen or bathroom strip-out in West Bromwich is easier in a 6 yard builders skip, the largest size for heavy waste.

Other ways to get rid of it in West Bromwich

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

Questions

Which West Bromwich skips need a permit from Sandwell Council?
Only skips on the road, pavement or verge need one. Sandwell Council's permit costs £48 for up to 10 days, and only the registered skip company can apply for it. A skip kept on your own drive needs no permit.
What should I know before a skip goes on Sandwell Road, West Bromwich?
Part of Sandwell Road is shared-use residents parking, Monday to Saturday 8am to 6pm, with a two-hour stay and no return within three hours unless you hold a permit. Mention it when you book, so the skip company can plan where the skip sits.
Is the Shidas Lane tip better than a skip for B70 rubble?
For a few bags, often. The Oldbury tip takes hard-core, rubble, soil and plasterboard up to eight bags or 200kg a month each, and you must book first. A bigger strip-out is easier in a 6 yard builders skip.
Can Sandwell Council collect three old armchairs from a B71 home?
It can, through its bulky waste collection. £25.90 covers two to four bulky items, and you get a provisional date when you start the form. For a clearance with more than that, a 4 yard midi or bigger makes more sense.
Will a skip fit outside a Greets Green terrace in B70?
Usually it goes on the road. Greets Green has Victorian and Edwardian terraces, and the town's terraces built around 1880 to 1910 have short front gardens. Plan for Sandwell's £48 permit, which covers up to 10 days. A 4 yard midi leaves more of the street clear.
