Recycling centres (tips) overview

Temporary waste acceptance, and access arrangements for recycling centres

Do not visit a recycling centre if you have COVID-19 or if you have been asked to isolate due to being in close contact with someone who has tested positive with COVID-19.

If you have waste that you suspect or is contaminated with Covid-19 material, please double bag the waste and leave it for at least 72 hours before bringing it to the site.

Temporary changes to be aware of

• Staff are unable to provide physical assistance, please only bring waste you can safely dispose of on your own.  If you have a disability that affects your ability to dispose of your waste, please notify staff on arrival and they will direct you to a ‘drop off’ location (please be aware staff will not be able to help unload your vehicle). 
    
• Please wear a face mask if you can during your visit. 

• Only one person per vehicle permitted to unload

• Only one person at a time should be on the access ramps to the waste and recycling skips, or at the front of a skip or container disposing of waste. Please stand back and wait for ramps and containers to be clear of other users before approaching.

These temporary restrictions are being reviewed and updated regularly, please check our website and social media for updates.  

Further information is provided on planning your visit and site rules to help you prepare for your visit.
