To place a skip on the highway without first applying for and being granted a licence is an offence under The Highways Act 1980 and may result in a prosecution. 

(NOTE: To place a builders skip on any part of the highway you must first of all obtain a permit from this Authority)    (see Licence - Skip Permit)

The unauthorised placement of builders skips within a highway is both DANGEROUS and ILLEGAL.    

Copies of the Highways Act 1980 can be purchased from Her Majesty's Stationery Office.
