Coventry Clear-outs: Getting Waste Out of the House

Earlsdon’s older red-brick streets include homes with gardens and side entrances. The useful question is how waste will get from your rooms to the skip.

  • Front door or side gateTell us which route you will use for old cupboards or garden waste. A narrow side passage is a walking route, not room for a lorry.
  • Measure your own driveCheck the usable ground between walls, gates and the house. Keep the front door and any shared entrance open.
  • Tiles add weight quicklyFor a kitchen or bathroom job, describe tiles and rubble separately from wooden units so the load can be agreed.

Coventry City-Centre Skips: Agree the Position First

Coventry checks a road skip’s position for traffic, crossings and access. A space near the building may still be unsuitable.

Blue skip beside a clear pavement and buildings
  • Keep away from junctionsThe council normally keeps skips at least 20 metres from a junction and away from crossing zig-zags. A difficult spot needs advice before delivery.
  • Do not block a doorwayThe permit conditions protect access for people and emergency vehicles. Leave drains and service covers clear too.
  • Arrange collection when fullCoventry’s conditions require a full road skip to be removed as soon as possible and within one working day. Tell us when your waste will be ready.

Using a Coventry Parking Bay for the Job

Ask Coventry’s Parking Services about the exact bay before relying on the space for delivery or a skip.

  • Five working days for a requestThe council needs at least five working days to deal with a parking-bay suspension. Weekends and bank holidays do not count.
  • Name the bay and lengthThe application asks whether it is a residents’ or pay-and-display bay, how much space is needed and for how many days.
  • Explain that it is for a skipThe parking form also covers work vehicles. Make clear what will occupy the bay and confirm the separate skip permission.
