- Each additional week on the road needs an extension, paid at the time of booking.

- On the road, the skip needs yellow ends, reflective markings, cones and night lamps.
Getting a skip in Witney
In Witney, Newland's long terraces of small stone workers' cottages line the road, and West End's old terraced houses sit right on the pavement. Parking isn't allowed along much of West End, so tell the skip company before it arrives. With no front space, your skip goes on the road under the county licence, applied for at least five working days ahead. A 4 yard midi takes a cottage clear-out and keeps to a smaller patch of road.
Church Green, Corn Street and Market Street have bays for WY permit holders, with a 2-hour limit for everyone else from 8am to 6pm, Monday to Saturday. Give the skip company your exact street when you book, so it can plan where the skip stands. All three sit in the Witney and Cogges conservation area, which also takes in Woodgreen. Woodgreen's large detached houses stand in their own grounds, so an 8 yard large may fit off the road there.
A small job may not need a skip at all. Dix Pit at Stanton Harcourt takes two 50-litre rubble bags free once every 7 days if you book a visit, and West Oxfordshire Council collects up to four bulky items for £41. For more than that, hire. For a kitchen or bathroom refit on the Madley Park estate in north-east Witney, a 6 yard builders skip holds heavy rubble.

Fly-tipping in Witney
£400 fixed penalty
985 incidents reported across the West Oxfordshire Council area in 2024-25, about 8.1 per 1,000 people.
Council-wide figures, not just Witney.
Nobody wants fly-tipping in Witney. Whoever takes your waste, make sure they’re a licensed waste carrier. The skip companies on this site all are.
By law you’re responsible for your waste even after it’s collected. If it’s dumped and traced back to you, you can be fined.

Questions
- Do I need a permit for a skip in Witney?
- Only if it goes on the road or pavement. Oxfordshire County Council licenses it at £125 for 7 days off a bus route, and the skip company applies at least five working days ahead. A skip on your drive or in your own grounds needs nothing.
- Can a skip go on Corn Street or Market Street in Witney?
- It needs the county licence, as both streets are lined with parking bays. Both sides are for WY permit holders or a 2-hour stay, 8am to 6pm Monday to Saturday. Give the skip company your exact street when you book so it can plan the spot.
- Is Dix Pit better than a skip for a little OX28 rubble?
- For a bag or two, it is. Dix Pit takes two 50-litre rubble bags free once every 7 days, then charges per 20-litre bag. You have to book your visit online and bring proof of address.
- Should I book West Oxfordshire's bulky collection for a few items in Witney?
- For up to four large items, it's often simpler. West Oxfordshire Council collects four items for £41, and you can book up to three weeks ahead. With more than that, or rubble as well, a 4 yard midi skip takes the lot.
