Birmingham – or the city of a thousand trades – has seen mass expansion in a relatively short space of time. In the Domesday Book it is described as a tiny village worth only 20 shillings. Now it is competing with Manchester to claim the title of the UK’s second biggest city.

Birmingham council is one of a handful in the UK to not charge for skip hire permits. This means that if you need a skip and do not have a driveway, then a skip permit needs to be applied for from the local authority. Most councils charge anything up to £107 for a permit. Birmingham council charge nothing, so a big saving will be been made.

However, Birmingham council can be wary of having skips on the road in the city centre. In some parts, they will refuse to have skips on the highway in order to keep the city’s bustling traffic moving. In this case, a wait and load service is worth considering. This is where the skip is delivered and the driver waits for half an hour while the skip is filled by the customer. The main benefit of this is that there is no danger of other people throwing their waste in to your skip.

The size of Birmingham means that skip hire prices vary. The north is generally more expensive than the south. The areas surrounding Birmingham are also victims of this price increase due to the extra haulage involved. Redditch, Tamworth and Bromsgrove are subject to these charges.

Unlike Manchester and London, there is no threat of permit charges in Birmingham. This means that alongside the free permits, skip hire costs in Birmingham is among the lowest in the country. Good news for Brummies!

Topskips offers skips from 2 cubic yards to 40 cubic yards for the Birmingham area. Your waste is then taken to any of our three skip hire depots in Smethwick, Yardley and Bromsgrove. The depots then sort the waste into components. Hardcore, timber, glass, plastic and metal are separated and sent to recycling sites.

This ensures that when you hire a skip in Birmingham with Topskips, you will make a positive impact on the environment.

Whatever your situation, Topskips can help.

Thank you!
