Bin stores in Aspley Guise
Aspley Guise is mainly 18th and early 19th-century houses, many early Georgian and listed, in red brick with some ironstone, timber frame and thatch. Holly hedges line Woburn Lane and brick walls hold the street line on West Hill. In a village like this, a row of wheelie bins in the front garden stands out, but so would a store placed carelessly against a historic wall or in front of a listed facade.
We fit composite slatted stores with aluminium doors on a level paved pad, sized for one, two or three bins. The village is under Central Bedfordshire Council, and on our free design visit Milton Keynes Driveways & Landscaping looks at the house, the boundary and the route to the kerb before suggesting a position. The prices here are guides; the fixed price is confirmed in writing once the position is agreed.
What makes Aspley Guise different
The conservation area appraisal recommends clay brick paviors or York stone and lime mortar, and keeping the ironstone and brick boundary walls and hedges. That steers the pad finish towards clay paviors or stone rather than plain concrete, and keeps the store behind the existing boundary. The ground is free-draining Woburn Sands sandstone, but the village slopes towards the Ouse valley, and surface water is the documented risk: in June 2016, 16 properties were affected on Bedford Road, The Square and West Hill.
A typical Aspley Guise job is a two bin store at the side or rear of a brick house, behind the boundary hedge or wall, on a small pad in clay paviors. Where the bins have to come out to the lane, a short paved path links the store to the gate without disturbing the boundary itself.

Permissions and checks in Aspley Guise
- Step 1A 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 conservation areas in Aspley Guise have tighter rules, so we check your address before anything is designed. Planning Portal: outbuildings
- Step 2We check the ground and the planning position at the free design visit and give you one fixed written price.

“Milton Keynes Driveways & Landscaping have just finished our full garden makeover in Milton Keynes. We had a porcelain patio, composite decking and raised sleeper beds.
