It's ?28 per day. "f you wish to place a skip in a restricted parking bay, you must apply for a parking suspension."

Plus a skip licence. https://www.southwark.gov.uk/business/licences/roads-and-highway-licences/skip-licence

Often for big jobs like extensions, you might get a skip for a week or so while the majority of rubble and rubbish is generated (demolition/gutting). Then throughout the rest of the job, the builders will use a "wait and load" to take away further rubbish.

Oh Abe, that sounds like a belter of a plan.

It's a six month job on a totally derelict house so whether it's the skip or the contractor van, we have no choice. I absolutely refuse to write a cheque for 6 grand to this council for the privilege of using a piece of their crappy potholed tarmac when people in the next street can do it for next to nothing. It's completely outrageous.

    • RSPCA advice on keeping dogs safe in the heat:  'Dogs die on hot walks Dogs are 10 times more likely to suffer heat-related illnesses from exercising in hot weather than from overheating in cars. Learn how to keep dogs safe and help us raise awareness of this deadly problem.' https://www.rspca.org.uk/adviceandwelfare/pets/dogs/health/hotwalks?utm_source=Campaigns_Hotwalks_10072025&utm_medium=email&utm_content=button1&utm_campaign=Campaigns_Hotwalks_10072025&campaigncode=25STNFDIGVXA1
    • I didn't say anything was "a fact". I said it was "hardly likely" 🙄 Do you seriously think someone would go out of their way to harm or kill an unusual animal? Even assuming they ever actually saw it? And then you deleted your post. Did you not want people to see what you had said?
    • If people were diligent about not leaving food items out where it is accessible, then we wouldn't have as big a fox problem. Foxes raid trash bins for food and leave rubbish strewn on the pavement.  Other European cities have strict rules on disposal of edibles and they dont have a fox problem
    • You keep insisting that you're "just stating facts", but so far, most of what you've shared isn't fact - it's just your personal opinion, framed with hostility.  Foxes aren't classified as "vermin" in the UK. They're wild animals protected under the Animal Welfare Act & the Wildlife & Countryside Act . & Yes, they do play a vital role in controlling rodent population. The more you double down on insults & misinformation, the more you discredit your own argument. It's possible to be fed up & still informed. Take the information provided to you & do something about it. BTW culling doesn't even work.
