Common questions
Do I need a permit for a skip in Devizes?
Yes, if the skip goes on the public highway. Section 139 of the Highways Act 1980 requires the highway authority's permission first. In Devizes, Wiltshire Council charges £143.80 with more than three working days' notice, or £164.70 with less, valid for 28 days. The skip company applies and pays online via the MiPermit portal, holding £5 million public liability insurance. Skips in a marked parking bay also need a parking bay suspension from the council. A skip left without a licence costs £292.50 in late fees.
How do I check a skip hire firm in Devizes is a registered waste carrier?
Check the Environment Agency's public register of waste carriers, brokers and dealers; a skip firm, which carries other people's waste, needs upper-tier registration. Of the firms listed for Devizes, 5 are confirmed on the register as of 6 October 2026. This matters because paying someone to take your waste who isn't entitled to can lead to a council fixed penalty of £150 to £600, with a default of £200, so check before booking.
Hazardous waste such as asbestos needs special disposal, and items containing ozone-depleting substances, like old fridges, also count as hazardous. Plasterboard and other gypsum waste must not go to landfill mixed with biodegradable waste, and tyres, whole or shredded, are banned from landfill altogether. Skip firms usually ask for these materials to be kept separate or left out of the skip because of these rules, so it's worth checking with your chosen firm what they will and won't accept before you load it.
Of the 20 firms listed for Devizes, 4 publish a starting price on their own website, and these published figures range from £100 to £150, though the final price depends on skip size and hire length. 4 of the firms say they arrange the Wiltshire Council permit for you, which costs £143.80 or £164.70 depending on how much notice is given, as a cost on top of the skip hire.
