Restrictions

Anyone bringing household waste to one of the recycling centres in a commercial type vehicle, including hired vehicles, should be prepared to have the load inspected to make sure that it is permitted household waste and not commercial/industrial waste.

Entrance barrier restrictions
Vehicles may be stopped to check that household waste is being carried. If you have a specially adapted vehicle and are displaying a disabled badge, the site attendants will lift the barrier.

Restricted waste
Small quantities of household chemicals and paint can be accepted. Large amounts of soil, rubble and D.I.Y. waste cannot be accepted. Please keep your plasterboard separate from all other materials as mixed loads cannot be accepted. Small amounts (3-4 bags) of Loft Insulation can be accepted, however larger amounts need to be paid for through our chargeable trade waste schemes at Stafford|, Cannock| and Leek|.
