! Customer responsibility
If a permit is required for your skip placement, you (the customer) are responsible for applying and paying for the permit directly with Cork City & County Councils. SkipNow.ie does not apply for permits on your behalf. Council fees are paid direct to the council and are not included in your skip booking price.
For Cork City & County Councils skip-permit applications, visit corkcoco.ie. Allow 3–5 working days for processing, longer for paid-parking-bay suspensions.
