Skip permits

To place a skip on the public highway (this includes the carriageway, footway and verge) you will need a permit from the Streetworks team.

Skip permits are only issued to Skip Hire companies who are registered with Slough Borough Council. We do this to make sure the company has the correct insurance and complies with our guidelines and safety regulations.

Skip permits are issued for 14 days, renewals can be requested for 7 days.
