Keep the pavement and verge clear
Hounslow says skips must not stand on pavements or verges. Ask the operator to assess a lawful private or road position instead of treating the space outside a property as interchangeable.
Let the operator check the delivery method
The council's guidance also addresses how skips are delivered across the pavement. Photos of the approach help the company decide whether the proposed position is workable.
