This is a summary, not a complete list. If an item isn’t shown, check with the council before you travel.
Ask staff where to put full or partly full aerosols. Fitted furniture, wooden fence posts/panels and wooden garden structures cannot be brought in a van; construction-waste rules also apply.
Participating-site DIY allowance for restricted materials: once in seven days, up to two 50-litre bags (each no bigger than 50cm × 77cm), one item up to 2m × 0.75m, or one plasterboard sheet up to 1.2m × 1.4m. Excess is charged. Vans/pick-ups/trailers have narrower material permissions; doors, fitted units and wooden fencing cannot be brought in a van. Check the source before transporting a construction load.
Only asbestos cement is accepted, normally up to six sheets; call the site first to check container space. Double-wrap or double-bag in heavy-duty polythene and seal with tape. Declare it to staff and complete the household-waste declaration. Vans, pick-ups and trailers also require a permit and are subject to the construction-waste quantity limit.
