Learn more about Skip Hire in Croydon

Skip hire in Croydon is a bit of a challenge compared with other London boroughs that have more relaxed road rules. There are a total of 16 streets within the borough that restrict parking of hired skips, and the A22, A23 and A232 are red routes which do not allow skips to be placed by the side of the road. The availability of 3 civic amenity sites at Factory Lane, North Downs Road and Brighton Road makes up for the lack of skip hire provision by providing a variety of options for households and individuals, and allows residential waste carriers to easily dispose of rubbish locally and without driving long distances.

Wayst offers a variety of mini, midi, builder and maxi skips to residents in Croydon, and also provides roll on roll off skips that are available for same-day and next-day deliveries to accommodate large scale projects on construction sites. Our domestic clients working on clear-outs and redecoration projects usually use 2 yard and 4 yard skips depending on the amount of waste that they need to dispose of, 6 and 8 yard skips are also frequently used for waste clearance and domestic construction projects as they can also accommodate larger amounts of rubbish.

While some of the requirements and limitations of hiring a skip might be at times overwhelming for first time service users, our friendly and knowledgeable customer service team can guide you through the process with timely and precise information about council permits and other skip hire regulations. When you arrange skip hire with Wayst, we send the best contractors for smooth delivery and collection of skip containers, with a high standard of health and safety and a commitment to safeguarding the environment. We also ensure that we explain the costs involved in skip hire clearly while providing transparent and straightforward pricing information to our clients.

Skip hire prices in Croydon

In Croydon, the most commonly used 6 yard skip costs an average of £267 while an 8 yard skip is charged £313, both including VAT. This is the base cost of the skip container only, and will cover the total cost of hiring the skip if it is going to be placed on private property, eliminating the need for additional skip license fees, however skips placed on public property are more likely to cost more.

A skip permit in Croydon can be obtained from the council for £51 and is valid for two weeks. This is a requirement for skips that need to be parked on the roadside or within a controlled parking zone (CPZ). A £40 per day parking bay suspension certificate applies to skips parked in controlled parking zones and could add a total of £140 towards the total cost of the skip over the 14 day timeframe, although you will save money on the parking bay suspension if you end up needing the skip for less time.

Another factor to consider are the council requirements for skip lights or covers, and extra charges applied by Croydon council to skips without covers and is a road safety measure implemented by Croydon council.

How does skip hire work?

For first time service users, hiring a skip can sometimes appear complex and overwhelming, however, a good service provider will apply for the skip license and parking permit where possible on behalf of the client. When this is not possible, they will offer as much guidance as they can to the customer, although a basic understanding of how the process works will help to ensure that you are choosing the right service for your needs, and are compliant with the local authority regulations.

After checking if the location you wish to park the skip is exempt from the local authority restrictions, the next most important thing is contacting a registered private waste carrier. When you enquire with your chosen provider, also check if they are familiar with the road layout in your neighbourhood, as they will have to access the location with delivery trucks that they need to ensure have enough room to load and unload outside the premises.

How long can you keep a skip bin for?

A skip placed on private property can be kept for as long as necessary without requiring significant additional fees. Meanwhile, skips placed on the road in Croydon can only be kept for 14 days initially. If necessary, residents may request for an extension which the skip hire company can apply for on their behalf, however renewals are not always guaranteed and will of course add to the overall cost of the service.

Skip hire alternatives

There are several skip alternatives that individual households and business customers can use that might be more appropriate for their waste removal requirements, or for when skip hire is not possible. The most popular alternative is skip bags (or hippo bags) that come flat packed in sizes ranging from 1-yard to 4.5 yards, and can be collected with a grab truck once full. Another option is man and van or waste clearance, which are among the most flexible and convenient waste services on offer especially when you need assistance with the heavy lifting or if the waste is ready to be cleared at that moment.

What you need to know about Croydon

Croydon

The Principle town of Croydon within the Greater London Borough of Croydon is the next largest commercial district outside of central London and has excellent rail links to the capital, and towards coastal towns in the south east of England. It is also home to London’s only tram network which reportedly transports over 29 million people every year. Croydon town also has plenty to offer outside of its shopping centres, pubs bars and restaurants. The Airport Visitor Centre is one of Croydon’s most unique well known attractions, situated in the world’s oldest air traffic control tower and only open one weekend a month, so plan ahead! The Museum of Croydon is another must see, with its own art gallery and richly detailed local history exhibits. There is also the Turf gallery space, which offers workshops run by local artists, and plenty of outdoor attractions and parks. Coombe Wood, which is set in well kept grounds and has picturesque views and an on site cafe. Wandel Park, which features a river, a playground and a skate park is also very popular with visitors and locals. Croydon is currently the fifth cheapest borough in London for property prices and an ideal location to invest, mainly due to the regeneration plans and the predicted increase in house prices This investment opportunity has driven up construction work in the area, which in turn has caused an increase in the production of construction waste; mainly refurbishment related waste such as flooring and carpets. The most popular property types in Croydon are 3 bedroom properties and flats, and over 65% of properties are now rented when compared to the 2001 census, which inevitably causes a range of residential waste types as bulky household waste is created during the moving process.

How is the local authority in Croydon handling your waste?

Residents can find advice on how to reduce and reuse waste on the council website, and Croydon council provide a very useful and informative video, explaining exactly how waste is handled and recovered at waste treatment facilities from within the borough and on a national scale. All the waste that is collected in the borough goes on a reprocessing journey. Food waste goes to an anaerobic digestion facility, where gas and bio fertilizer are produced. The biogas is used as fuel and for generating electricity, and the fertilizer is pasteurised to remove pathogens before being applied to the soil. Paper and card get sent to paper mills throughout the UK, where the materials are washed and liquified before being reprocessed into recycled paper products. Glass tins and plastic go into the mixed recycling bin and taken to a materials recovery facility where they are sorted and sold on to reprocessors, and there is a facility in Dagenham where some of the plastic gets processed into pellets which can be used to manufacture any number of plastic based products and materials.

Croydon Council's Waste Management Performance:

· Overall annual spend on waste management £19,369,000,00
· Per person spend £25
· Landfill rate 49.50%
· Reuse and recycling rate 50.50%

What are the plans for a greener future in Croydon?

Croydon is part of the South London Waste Partnership made up of the four boroughs of Croydon Merton Sutton and Kingston. Together they implement cost effective waste management strategies, and provide news and information on how the South London Waste Partnership is working towards sustainable environmentally friendly solutions. Croydon council ensures that even non recyclable waste can be kept out of landfill by sending materials such as Polystyrene, bubble wrap, and some food containers to an energy recovery facility in Beddington less than four miles from the town centre. The waste materials are burnt at temperatures that can exceed 850 degrees celsius, producing large amounts of steam used to generate electricity and ash, which can be used in road building. Viridor, who manage large scale waste treatment projects, have taken over what was once the landfill site at Beddington and transformed it into natural wetlands and grasslands in collaboration with the South London Waste Partnership. Croydon’s own environmental policy, The Green Commitment which was established over 20 years ago, sets out five key aims to improve the environment including a commitment to sustainability and protecting and improving natural surroundings within the borough.
