Getting a skip in Winsford

A 4 yard midi suits a room clear-out in one of Weaver Street's two-bedroom Victorian terraces in Winsford. Delamere Street and Wharton Road have the same kind of terraced housing, with parking on the street. A skip outside your house there sits on the road, so it needs Cheshire West and Chester's licence. Only the skip company can apply for it. Work is beginning on 99 new homes at the Phoenix House and Weaver Street Depot site.

Away from the older streets, much of Winsford is post-war semis built mainly between 1960 and 1980, plus 1960s council estates such as Glebe Green, St John's, Wharton Gardens and the Over estate. If your semi has a drive, the skip sits there and needs no licence. An 8 yard large handles a full house clear-out. For just a couple of bags of rubble, the Leslie Road tip takes two 50-litre bags free per visit, as long as the rubble is bagged.

The council's own services beat a skip for some jobs. Its bulky waste collection takes one to three items for £50.84, and a garden waste bin costs £74 for the year. For soil, rubble or old paving from a Winsford garden, you'll want a skip, and a 6 yard builders is the biggest to use for heavy waste.

Questions

Do I need a permit for a skip in Winsford?
Only if it goes on a road, footpath or verge the council looks after. A skip on your drive needs nothing. For the road, the skip company gets Cheshire West and Chester's licence at £110 for up to 28 days, and it takes around five working days.
Will a skip fit outside my terrace on Delamere Street, Winsford?
A 4 yard midi is the sensible size. Delamere Street's Victorian terraces have parking on the street only, so the skip sits on the road under a council licence. It must be signed and lit so drivers can see it, which the skip company sorts.
How much rubble can I take to Winsford's Leslie Road tip free?
Two 50-litre bags per visit, up to four visits in four weeks, and you can bring the four weeks' allowance in one go. Rubble and soil must be in containers, not loose. Past that it's charged per bag, so a 2 yard mini may suit a bigger job.
How long is the wait for a Winsford bulky waste collection?
Up to 20 working days once you've paid. The council collects one to three items for £50.84, which suits a sofa or a bed. For a whole room of furniture plus bags, a skip holds more and stays until you're done.
Is a garden bin better than a skip for Winsford hedge cuttings?
For regular cuttings, the council's garden waste bin costs £74 for the year, January to December. For a one-off garden clearance with soil or old paving, a 6 yard builders skip takes the heavy waste a bin can't.
