What The Permit Covers
That is the 2026/27 charge, up from £32.70, approved by the council's Chief Officer for Highways and Transportation on 30 March 2026 to apply from 1 April 2026. A retrospective application costs £115.30. Applications must come from a skip company registered with the council, and the council does not state how long a permit lasts.
How Long Does It Take To Get A Skip Permit?
How much notice Leeds City Council needs is set by them, and we publish a figure only where we have read one on their own page. Where they do state a notice period it is shown above, under what the permit covers. Apply as early as you can, and ask your skip hire company first, as most of them handle the application for you.
Check with Leeds City Council for the latest permit prices and specific requirements for your location.
