Siting the Skip: Subject to the layout and size of your property in Rochdale, it may not be all that straightforward to identify a good situation for your skip. If you've got a driveway or spare patch of lawn which you could make use of (be mindful of damage!), and that would be the best state of affairs. You might need to plonk the skip on the main road which borders your home, if you do not have a drive or suitable patch of garden. If this is the case you're probably going to need to get a permit/licence from your local council that allows you to do this. Most skip hire companies in Rochdale will be more than happy to get this permit on your behalf, whilst some may require that you get this yourself.
