Question 1

Do I need a permit to keep a skip on the street in Welshpool?

Accepted Answer

Yes, if your skip will sit on a public highway or street in Welshpool, you'll need a permit from Powys County Council. Contact the council to apply before booking your skip. Permits typically cost around £25-50 and take a few days to arrange. If your skip is on private land, no permit is needed.
