What Shapes Skip Hire in Cork
Cork isn't a single market — different parts of the town work differently. Here's the split.
What you can put in
Mixed household and construction waste is fine. No asbestos, paint cans, tyres, fridges, mattresses (rules vary) — ask at booking if unsure.
Payment options
Card, Apple Pay or Google Pay at booking through Stripe Checkout. Trade accounts available on application for 30-day terms.
Skip Hire Cork — Local Knowledge
We deliver skips across Cork and the surrounding Cork villages every working day. Most Cork addresses sit inside the T12 Eircode area which means we have a delivery van within 30 minutes of you most weekday mornings. If you book before 11 AM we can usually have the skip on-site that afternoon, otherwise next working day.
For driveway drops we don't need a permit. For road or footpath placements in Cork the council (Cork City/Co.) requires a road-opening permit which we can arrange for you — the lead time is normally 3-5 working days so factor that in. Mixed construction and household waste are both fine, the only blanket exclusions are asbestos, fridges, paint cans, and tyres which require specialist disposal.

Skip Permits in Cork — Honest Detail
A skip permit is only required if your skip will sit on a public road, footpath, or paid-parking bay. On private property — driveway, garden, yard — no permit is needed.
! 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.
