Skip Hire in Epping: what to know
Epping is a market town at the end of the Central line, strung along a single High Street and hemmed in by Epping Forest and green belt. It has no recycling centre of its own: Waltham Abbey's is the closest but takes cars only and no DIY waste, so van loads and rubble have to go to Harlow.
Epping's main development sites are in the town centre, where five linked schemes around St John's Road, Cottis Lane and Bakers Lane were approved together, providing a leisure centre, a multi-storey car park, commercial units and 269 homes. To the south, the South Epping masterplan area is allocated for at least 450 homes and a primary school. The Epping conservation area, designated in 1969, covers the High Street and holds 32 listed buildings, and Bell Common and Coopersale Street are protected too. Extensions and loft conversions are common in the inter-war semi-detached houses.
Skips on the road in Epping. A driveway skip needs no paperwork; a road skip needs a licence before it's delivered. Essex Highways issues skip licences here, not the district council. Only the skip company can apply, so we do it for you. Allow 10 working days for a new licence. Size limit on the road: 6-yard maximum on the highway; anything bigger needs a driveway or private land. Enquire online and we'll confirm the permit price for your street before you book.
Will a skip fit? On the terraced streets there's rarely a drive to put a skip on and parking is tight, so the choice is a road licence or a one-visit collection. If you're not sure, send us a photo of the spot. Where a skip won't go, a wait and load in Epping costs about the same and needs no permit.

Skip Hire in Epping: your questions
Do I need a skip permit in Epping?
Only if the skip goes on the public highway. Essex Highways issues skip licences here, not the district council, and we apply on your behalf. On a driveway, no permit is needed. Enquire online and we'll confirm the permit price for your street before you book.
How quickly can you deliver a skip to Epping?
Driveway skips are delivered within one to two working days. Road skips wait for the licence, which takes 10 working days from Essex County Council.
Can I take the waste to the tip instead?
Waltham Abbey Recycling Centre is the nearest recycling centre. Every car visit must be booked in advance (Blue Badge holders, pedestrians and cyclists are exempt). Cars only: vans, pick-ups and large trailers are not accepted, and the site does not take DIY waste or rubble. For anything over a car boot's worth, a skip or a collection is quicker.
