Parish council to identify the location for a skip of compost to be unloaded.

The compost will be delivered in a 3.3m by 1.6m skip which will be unloaded at the chosen location. The location doesn’t require a base for the compost to sit on.

Things to consider when identifying the location:

  • Ensure the land will withstand the weight of the vehicle and a fully laden skip. The vehicle must be able to drop the load from a hardstanding surface. The council will not be held liable for any damage caused.

  • Ensure there is a minimum of 3 metres (10 feet) width safe access and more than 5-meter height access.

  • If there are any barriers (gates, height restrictions) these will need to be opened prior to delivery.

  • Ensure there are no obstacles where the loose compost is to be sited.

  • A representative from the parish council or a nominated person is to be onsite to receive and sign for the delivery.
