Skip Hire in Stevenage: The Complete Guide
Stevenage holds a notable place in British planning history as the first town designated under the New Towns Act of 1946, built to take overspill population from London and laid out with one of the country's earliest dedicated cycleway networks and a pioneering pedestrianised town centre. The original old town sits alongside the planned neighbourhoods, with nearby Knebworth to the south and the villages of Walkern and Graveley adding a rural fringe to the wider area.
That new-town heritage means a large proportion of the housing dates from the 1950s through the 1970s, stock that is now well into its renovation years. Kitchens, bathrooms and central heating systems are being updated, lofts converted and gardens reworked, alongside full house clearances. A 4 or 6 yard skip handles most domestic jobs, while an 8 yard skip, from £85, is the most popular choice for clearances and larger refurbishment work, giving better value per tonne.
On-road skip permits are administered by Stevenage Borough Council, and we handle the permit application on your behalf as part of every on-road booking. Same-day delivery is available across Stevenage, Knebworth, Walkern and Graveley when you book before 12pm.
