Just had a call for skip hire Hammersmith for tomorrow morning. There would be no problem with this, but the customer didn’t have a driveway to plonk the skip on, and therefore would need a skip permit.

To make matters worse, the customer’s council is Hammersmith and Fulham, a council that seems to take pleasure in making the permit application process as drawn out and costly as possible.

So, in the end, we couldn’t actually do it. The customer is organising the paperwork with the council first, and then will ring us when (if?!) the permit arrives.
