Do I need permission to put a container on my drive/in my garden?
Usually no permit needed.
Possibly – especially if it will interfere in any way with your neighbours. Always check with your council before ordering. Also, consider access for delivery, as road closure permits are quite often required, and these are the buyer’s/renter’s responsibility.

Visibility often influences complaints and enforcement. A container hidden behind a building may attract little attention, while the same container in a highly visible location can generate questions even when the use is otherwise identical. Related questions
