East of Manchester by the M60, Ashton-under-Lyne is Tameside’s main town, a market town at the end of the Metrolink line with a run of separate neighbourhoods around it: Hurst, Smallshaw, Waterloo, Limehurst, Hazelhurst, Cockbrook, Ryecroft and Guide Bridge. Skips Manchester provides skip hire and waste services right across the town.
Because the housing runs from red-brick terraces and flats to semis and modern estates with driveways, the best service changes from one street to the next. For flats and terraces, a man-with-van collection is frequently the simplest route. Firms in the town centre, at Ashton Moss and around Guide Bridge want larger containers and regular trade bins.
Which option suits you depends on whether you have a driveway, only on-street parking or a back alley, so let us know. A waste transfer note is issued with every load. Use the quote form on this page or ring 0333 121 1056.

Tameside permits and terraced streets
Ashton-under-Lyne is in Tameside, so Tameside Council issues the permit for any skip placed on a public road. Leave a few working days, as the skip provider normally makes the application. Skips on the road must be lit and marked.
As in many Greater Manchester mill towns, a lot of Ashton homes are terraces opening straight onto the pavement, with a back alley and no driveway. Before asking for a skip on a tightly parked street, make sure it will not obstruct neighbours or access, and describe the layout to us. Semis and newer estates around Hurst and Limehurst generally have driveways, where no permit is required.
Town centre, industry and construction
The town centre, with its market and shopping streets, holds a dense cluster of retailers and services, while distribution, manufacturing and trade firms operate from units at Ashton Moss and Guide Bridge. England’s Simpler Recycling rules require these workplaces to keep dry recyclables and food waste separate from general waste.
Regeneration work around the town centre, together with new homes going up on the fringes of the town, keeps demand steady for grab lorries, RORO containers and construction skips. A waste transfer note travels with each load, and a consignment note with any hazardous waste.

Questions about services in Ashton-under-Lyne
Can’t see your question? Call 0333 121 1056 or send us a message.
Is a skip permit required in Ashton-under-Lyne?
Yes, whenever the skip stands on a public road. Tameside Council issues the permit, and the skip provider normally sorts it out. No permit is needed on private land or your own driveway. More detail is in our guide to skip permits.
My terrace has no driveway, only street parking. What can I do?
Where the street has room and neighbours’ access stays clear, a permitted skip may work. Otherwise, a man-with-van collection loads straight from your door and removes everything in one visit, leaving nothing behind.
Are Dukinfield and Stalybridge covered?
Yes. Subject to availability, we cover Dukinfield, Stalybridge and the towns nearby. Both sit within Tameside, so permits follow the same process. When you book, tell us about any access problems along the route.
Can firms at Ashton Moss have food waste collected?
Yes. Ask for a quote, giving your usual volumes and the storage space you have. We supply dedicated food waste bins together with cardboard, mixed recycling and general waste collections. Subject to availability, visits can be timed around opening hours and production shifts.

“Responsive company and easy to deal with. Cheerful people who did the collection. Would reccommend!”
“I required disposal of some small hazardous items. I call around and enlisted the services of a two advertised waste removal business. It was a waste of time as neither could provide the required service. I can tell you what was not a wate of time; going to Waste Cloud. They were attentive and professional. They assessed the situation and the request and acted quickly, scheduling a pick up at site. Waste Cloud adheres to all Waste Regulations and produced the appropriate Waste Transfer Note for our records. They are now on the company books as a preferred supplier. If you want the job done to a high standard when others have or will fail; call on Waste Cloud to simply get the job done!”
