Overview
The Isle of Wight Council’s current service identifies two Household Waste Recycling Centres: Lynnbottom near Arreton and Afton Marsh at Freshwater. Our two associated records cover both, so the household network is complete. “Freshwater” is the locality for Afton Marsh rather than a third centre, and the council’s mini recycling sites are a separate facility type.

Book Lynnbottom or Afton Marsh
Book before visiting Lynnbottom or Afton Marsh. Use the council’s booking service to view or amend your appointment and check the centre information for opening days and accepted materials.
Vehicle permits and hire vans
Vans, campervans, pick-ups and other specified commercial-type vehicles require a permit for household waste. Ordinary cars, 4x4s and people carriers do not, unless they meet the car-derived-van criteria. Each permit allows 12 visits and is linked to the vehicle; allow up to ten working days for delivery.
A vehicle hired for four days or less does not need a permit. Bring the hire agreement. Longer hires require a permit. Vehicles over 3.5 tonnes, tractors, agricultural vehicles and horseboxes cannot use the household centres.
DIY and restricted materials
Check the council’s DIY guidance before taking building materials. Asbestos and plasterboard have specific arrangements, and household access does not authorise disposal of trade or commercial waste.
