Skip hire in Washington

A Washington skip delivery needs an agreed vehicle approach. If the house faces a path and parking is elsewhere, show where a lorry could actually place the container before planning the hire.

This guide uses the general size catalogue. It does not mean every container is available here. Enter your delivery address above to check local sizes and prices.

What are you clearing?

Rough amount

Keep the project within the quoted allowance

Say whether the job produces rubble, timber, garden material or mixed contents and how long loading will take. Ask about the collection date and any extension costs. Do not assume an empty-looking skip can take more dense waste.

Check the official skip-permission guidance for the address and current arrangements.

Choose the next step

Do not confuse a path with delivery access

Send a view from the road towards the proposed skip position. Identify shared parking, bollards, gates and anything overhead. Permission to use a private area and practical vehicle access are separate things; both need resolving.

Check the boundary before arranging a permit

For Washington addresses within Sunderland, the council's guidance puts the highway application with the skip operator. NE37 and NE38 extend beyond one authority. Verify the exact site rather than applying that rule solely because the address says Washington.
