Book a visit to the Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC)
Improvements at HWRC
If you're visiting the HWRC you may notice we are making a few changes to improve site security and customer experience.
We will provide further updates on this important work in due course, but for now please continue to use the site as you normally would.
The HWRC is open for pre-booked visits. This is to ensure we maintain the safety of residents, staff and other site users.
This approach limits the number of vehicles queuing on surrounding roads and minimises disruption to local businesses. We also do not wish to disrupt our waste collections, which operate from the same site.
Key points:
- The HWRC is open everyday except Wednesdays.
- The HWRC is now open for evening bookings on Tuesdays and Thursdays until 28 October 2021. This is to help minimise inconvenience caused by the current disruption to recycling box collections.
- The first slot you can book is at 8.00am.
- The final slot you can book is at 4.00pm Friday to Monday, 7.30pm Tuesdays and Thursdays.
- The HWRC no longer accepts commercial/trade customers, vehicles over 3.5 tonnes or vehicles with tail lifts. For commercial waste disposal, email PPS@publicpowersoloutions.co.uk or visit the Public Power Solutions website.
There are a number of requirements for anyone wanting to visit the HWRC. Please read the information on these pages carefully to avoid being turned away from the HWRC and wasting your journey.
The pages will tell you:
- What you need to know before you book, including how the booking system works and what to expect when you get to the HWRC
- How to get to the HWRC and what you can bring
- Answers to general questions you may have about the new system
