Maidstone is a town in Kent, England, of which it is the county town. Maidstone is historically important and lies 32 miles (51 km) east-south-east of London. The River Medway runs through the centre of the town, linking it with Rochester and the Thames Estuary. Historically, the river carried much of the town’s trade as the centre of the agricultural county of Kent, known as the Garden of England. There is evidence of settlement in the area dating back before the Stone Age. The town, part of the borough of Maidstone, has an approximate population (urban and rural areas combined) of 174,644 as of 2020. There has been a shift in the town’s economy since the Second World War away from heavy industry towards light industry and services.
If you’re considering having your skip dropped onto the road or into a parking bay. You will require a permit from your local council. These are an additional charge to your skip hire but vary in price from council to council.
They normally take 3-5 working days to obtain from the council even though in some cases it can take a lot longer. In terms of how long you have one for, it can be from 1 day up to a month and can be renewed depending on how long you need them.
They’re very flexible and as long as you don’t need the skip in a hurry is a excellent way to get your skip delivered exactly where you want it!

The price to hire a skip changes depending on the type of waste going into the skip and the size of the skip you require. As a rule of thumb, you should expect to pay from £100 up to about £350 for a domestic skip in most cases.
Depending on the size of the job your undertaking will determine the size of the skip you need. A general rule of thumb is to divide the number of bin bags of junk you’ll generate by ten. For example, if you think you’ll generate 60 bin bags of waste you will require a 6-yard skip.
Items which are allowed to place in a skip are household items such as wood, tiles, plaster, furniture, paper, cardboard, garden waste and fabrics. You can also place heavy materials such as bricks, rubble, concrete, stones, metal, pottery and clays.
