Household waste from your own home only; paid trade disposal at a separate weighbridge is a different service. Rubble and soil: up to five 900mm × 600mm rubble sacks per visit. Harden leftover paint before disposal; a material being accepted does not mean it is recycled. Apply for a van/twin-axle permit account at least two working days before a first visit.
Not accepted
- Trade or business waste in the household recycling service
- Asbestos in the household recycling area
ID and proof of address
- For households in Bolton, Bury, Manchester, Oldham, Rochdale, Salford, Stockport, Tameside and Trafford. Proof of address may be requested. Van/twin-axle permit applications require the vehicle log book and proof of address.
Trailers
- Trailers accepted
- Single-axle and twin-axle goods trailers are accepted, subject to site access restrictions. Cars with single-axle trailers have a 52-visit annual allowance; twin-axle trailer visits require a permit and have an 18-visit allowance.
- Permit required
- Yes for twin-axle trailers; no separate trailer permit for a car towing a single-axle trailer. A van still needs its own permit.
