WHAT STEPS TO TAKE TO INSTALL A BUCKET?

The installation of a bucket intended for the evacuation of waste and rubble requires a deposit and operating authorization

How to apply?

Before renting a skip, it is essential to make sure you have a skip deposit authorization, if:

·         The bucket is stored on the road

·         The bucket, placed on private land, protrudes on the road

In both cases, authorization is required. Generally, it must be requested from the municipality concerned. This approach can be undertaken by any user whatsoever: an individual, a project manager, a construction company, etc.

The authorization is issued on a precarious and revocable basis, in the form of roadway decree, authorization to deposit a dumpster in order to carry out waste evacuation works for a determined period, with possibly an authorization to interrupt or traffic management if necessary.

Good to know: The time taken to process the request is generally between 2 weeks and 1 month, depending on the municipality. It cannot exceed 2 months. In the absence of a response within this maximum period, the permit is considered to be refused.

What is the protocol?

The procedure to follow to obtain an authorization to deposit and operate a bucket is as follows:

·         Make the request to the town hall within 8 days (minimum) before storing the bucket

·         Fill in the information requested in the form; namely: the name of the person making the request, their contact details

·         Indicate the address of the site or site where waste and rubble must be removed using a skip, as well as the address of the installation

·         Provide a sketch showing precisely the location of the bucket

·         Indicate the dates of occupation of the road network

Following the authorization request, the town hall issues a supporting document. As for the authorization, it is issued either by the town hall or the police headquarters.

Please note: If you have to leave your dump body longer than expected on the roads, you are required to request an extension.

What cost?

Any deposit of skip on the public road is subjected to the payment of a right of occupation for an incomprehensible period of 7 days. This cost is variable. It depends on the municipality and its applicable rates. Without forgetting that an occupation on a place envisaged for the paying parking involves an additional compensation cost which can be requested by the commune and consequently to be taken into account.
