Skip Hire Cork — Local Knowledge
In Cork the council depends on the address: Cork City Council or Cork County Council. A skip on a private driveway needs no permit. If it has to go on a public road or footpath, you apply to the council directly for a permit. Delivery, collection and disposal are included, and the standard hire period is 4 days. Prices depend on skip size and the exact address.

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.
