Frequently Asked Questions
How full can I load my skip?
By law, you must not overload your skip with waste. As a general rule of thumb, we only accept level-loaded skips – and overfilled skips won’t be taken under any circumstances. We ensure that every skip is loaded correctly so that anyone in the immediate vicinity of the skip can be safe when walking or driving by, without having to worry about any loose items inside.
You’ll notice that each of our skips for skip hire in Chorley come with a maximum fill level around the outside. This can be used as a guide for when you should stop loading – allowing us to transport the skip safely and in accordance with road laws.
Generally, weight isn’t too much of an issue as our lorries can lift 8 tonnes reliably. However, weight could become a problem if your skip is filled with soil, for instance, and heavy rain saturates the waste. If your skip is too heavy for our lorries, or it’s overloaded, our fleet driver may ask you to remove some of the contents, or you might need to arrange for a new skip to be delivered.

How will my skip be delivered?
Here at Lostock Skips, we are committed to making sure that your skip is delivered in a way that isn’t only effective but is efficient too. To do this, we use a large HGV (Heavy Goods Vehicle) to deliver all skips for skip hire in Chorley at the agreed time. The main reason for this is that the skip itself is pretty heavy, and the waste you throw in the skip will add a considerable amount of weight.
As our large fleet will be delivering your skip, please ensure there is sufficient access for the vehicle to manoeuvre safely. It might be worth mentioning it to your neighbours in case they have to move their vehicles off the road, onto their drive or inside their garage – out of the way.
With skip hire in Chorley, you are responsible for telling us where you want the skip placing and ensuring it’s suitable. We’ll also need to know who we should contact if we encounter any problems along the way. The more information you can give us, the better. If the delivery is straightforward enough, you don’t necessarily need to be home when our fleet driver arrives.
If you have any special requests regarding the delivery of your skip, feel free to call us on 01204 698 153, and we will do everything we can to help.
What size skip do I need?
The answer to this question is entirely dependent on the number of items you’re looking to dispose of, and how large they are! Our skip hire Chorley service offers a plethora of sizes to accommodate your requirements. No matter how much you need to get rid of, by working with us at Lostock Skips, we are able to cater to your requirements with ease. Need to rid your area of a small selection of items that are moderately sized? Our 2 yard skips could be the option for you. Or, if you are conducting a wider scale clear out that may include larger items, then our 8 yard skip could be the best option for you.
When using our Chorley skip hire service, we always recommend that you purchase a skip that is a size up from how full you think it will get. This is so then you are left with a little room to play with in case you underestimate the size of the contents, and don’t have to pay for an entirely new skip to collect the remains.

What is a Skip Permit and when do you need one?
Skip Hire Permit Prices – Before you place a skip on any public highway or road (including a pavement), you need to have a skip permit from the local council. Skip permits exist to control how many skips are placed on the road because they take up space and can impact parking and traffic flow. Not having a skip permit is unlawful, you can be liable to a fine, and the skip could be removed at any time. There is no requirement for a permit if you put a skip on private land, such as your driveway, field, or private road. For more details, see our Skip Permit Prices.
