Permits

Skip permit: Pembrokeshire Council

First published 11 September 2026. Last checked 11 September 2026.

If the skip sits on a Pembrokeshire public highway, the council’s street-works fees apply. Pembrokeshire’s fees and charges street-works page (checked 11 September 2026) lists £64.00 per month or part thereof for 2026–27. Notice is not printed as a fixed working-day count on that fees page – confirm it with the hire firm or street works when you book. A skip wholly on private land you control does not need a highway permit.

The £64.00 figure is the published street-works charge for 2026–27, not a hire quote. Ask the firm who applies and how much notice Pembrokeshire needs for your exact drop.

A sensible order

  1. Can it sit wholly on the drive? If yes, book that and skip the licence.
  2. If it has to go on the road, tell the hire firm at booking. They apply. Confirm Pembrokeshire’s notice window when you book.
  3. Check their waste-carrier number – how to check a waste carrier licence.
  4. Size the job on the size guide.
