In Corby, a single wheelie bin store fitted on a level paved base starts from about £1,000 as a guide price. Two and three bin stores, and any new path to the kerb, are priced on the visit. The local point to get right is the ground: large areas around Corby were opencast quarried and restored, so we dig before designing the pad to make sure it stays level.

Bin stores in Corby

Bin stores in Corby

Corby grew fast as a steel town, and its estates, from Kingswood and Lodge Park to Beanfield and Danesholme, were built to house a lot of people quickly. Front gardens and side passages were not designed around three wheelie bins. We fit composite slatted stores with aluminium doors for one, two or three bins, set on a level paved pad with a route to the kerb, so the bins are out of sight and still easy to wheel out.

At Priors Hall Park, the issue is different. Many gardens there are handed over as bare, compacted plots, and the bins tend to live wherever there is a flat bit. A store on its own paved pad gives them a permanent home from the start. Whichever part of town you are in, we measure your bins, check the lids open fully inside the store and give you a guide price on the visit, followed by a fixed price in writing.

Corby specifically

What makes Corby different

Corby sits on the Northampton Sand ironstone that fed the steelworks, and much of the land around the town was opencast quarried and restored. In practice, the ground can change from natural ironstone to clay or fill within the same garden. A small pad on soft fill can sink at one corner, which twists the store and stops the doors closing. We dig down before designing the base, and near the Willow Brook we take extra care over where the pad's run-off goes.

On a Kingswood, Lodge Park or Danesholme house, a typical job is a two or three bin store in the front garden or beside the house, with a paved pad and a short path to the pavement. At Priors Hall Park it is usually a side or rear store on a new pad laid into a bare, compacted plot.

Permissions in Corby

  1. PlanningA bin store at the side or back of the house is normally permitted development. In front of the house, a free-standing store technically falls outside householder permitted development, so we check with the council before building one there. Listed buildings and the Corby conservation area have tighter rules, so we check your address before anything is designed. Planning Portal: outbuildings
  2. Design and priceWe measure up, check the ground and the planning position, and give you one fixed written price.

Questions

Bin stores in Corby: questions

How much does a bin store cost in Corby?
A single wheelie bin store fitted on a level paved base starts from about £1,000 as a guide. Two and three bin stores, and any new path to the kerb, are priced on the visit. What we find under the pad on Corby's mixed ground can affect the base, so we confirm a fixed price in writing after looking.
Do I need planning permission for a bin store in Corby?
At the side or back, normally not, as it is permitted development. In front of the house a free-standing store technically falls outside householder permitted development, so we check with North Northamptonshire Council. Corby has nine conservation areas, including the Old Village, and its only Article 4 direction, at Kingswood, controls houses in multiple occupation rather than garden structures.
Why does the ground matter for something as small as a bin store?
Because restored ground and fill can settle unevenly. If one corner of the pad drops, the store racks out of square and the doors and lids stop working. We dig first, so the base suits whatever is actually there, whether that is ironstone, clay or fill.
My Priors Hall Park garden is bare soil. Should the store go in first?
It often makes sense to plan it early. Putting the bin pad and path in before the rest of the garden means the bins have a fixed home and a firm route to the kerb from the start, and the rest of the garden can be designed around it.
