Skip hire in Kingston upon Hull

First published 12 September 2026. Last checked 12 September 2026.

Kingston upon Hull is a HoC Other city – not one of the 1,174 small/medium/large towns. A skip on the public road needs a Hull City Council highway licence – the skip company usually applies, not you. A skip wholly on a private drive you control does not. This page is placement and waste rules, not a list of firms.

Skip Clerk does not invent provider rankings, phone numbers or “top skips in Kingston upon Hull”. Check the carrier’s CBDU number, then ask who will apply for the road licence.

Private drive vs road

Local notes

Hull only issues one-week skip permits (£36) and only to firms on its approved contractor list – ask whether your operator is already registered. Fee note: £36 for one week (only duration offered), rechecked 12 Sep 2026.

The fee note above is from Hull City Council’s published page (or an honest note when none was printed), not a hire quote.

How to hire without a fake directory

  1. Decide the size from the job – What size skip do I need?.
  2. If it has to sit on the road, tell the firm you are in the Hull City Council highway area and ask them to apply. Give them the notice on the permit page.
  3. Ask for the waste-carrier number and check it – how to check a waste carrier licence.
  4. Keep plasterboard, electricals and sofas out of a mixed skip unless the operator says otherwise – what you cannot put in a skip.

Skip Clerk lists rules and council links, not a directory of firms. When we add a booking partner it will be labelled (affiliate) on partners.
