Durham Council

Durham County Council operates 12 Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs) for residents to recycle and dispose of household waste. These sites are strictly for local residents, and proof of address may be requested on arrival. Business and landlord waste is not accepted, and staff may ask about the type or amount of waste being disposed of. Only certain vehicles are permitted entry. If yours is not, you will need to apply for a garden and household waste permit.
