Licence - Skip Operators

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. 

For more information please contact the Traffic and Network Management service using the details at the top of this webpage. 

Skip licences are only granted to the companies providing skips, for ease of operation and management. Private individuals cannot obtain a licence
