Book before visiting Llansamlet

Llansamlet requires a booked date and time. Enter the correct vehicle registration and bring proof of your Swansea address. Cars can book, and vans or trailers can book if they hold a valid permit.

Prepare the documents for a permit

The council’s permit application asks for the vehicle’s V5 registration document, matching proof of a Swansea address and a side photograph of the vehicle or trailer. Check vehicle eligibility before applying or loading waste.

Check your material against the site guide

Accepted materials differ between Swansea’s centres. Use the council’s item search and individual site lists before travelling. Car tyres are not accepted at any centre; large renovation loads require a separate disposal service.

About this category

About Swansea Council

Swansea Council operates five recycling centres, available only to Swansea residents, so proof of residence such as a utility bill, driving licence or Council Tax bill may be required. Vans and trailers with valid permits can access Llansamlet and Clyne, but vans are not allowed at the other sites. Please segregate waste before visiting. Black bags with non-recyclable waste are accepted at Llansamlet and Clyne only. Site staff provide guidance, but visitors must unload items themselves.
