Todmorden (Eastwood) Recycling Centre Review

★★★★☆

The Eastwood site is conveniently located on Halifax Road between Todmorden and Hebden Bridge. It is well-organized with a clear circular layout that makes it easy to navigate even during busy weekends.

This is a "split-level" site, meaning you drive up to a higher platform to reach the skips. It is particularly valuable for local residents because it is one of only three sites in Calderdale that accepts hardcore, rubble, and plasterboard (subject to small charges).

Important for Visitors: You must bring proof of residency (like a driving license or utility bill) to show staff at the gate. The site has a 1.8m height barrier, and it is strictly closed on Thursdays and Fridays, so plan your trip accordingly!

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What type of waste can I bring to the HWRC?

A: HWRCs are for household and domestic waste only, similar to what you would take in a removal van when moving house. Trade or commercial waste is not accepted.

Q: Can pedestrians enter the HWRC to dispose of waste?

A: No, pedestrians cannot enter the site. If you don’t have a vehicle, you can stand at the entrance and a staff member will take your items for you.

Q: Are there restrictions on vehicles at HWRCs?

A: Yes, certain vehicles require permits, including commercial and van permits. Residents should check the vehicle permit schemes before visiting.

Q: Can I dispose of hazardous items like needles?

A: No, needles must not go in household waste. They should be placed in a sharps bin and handled according to local household collection guidance.

Q: Are there specific rules for bricks, rubble, or plasterboard?

A: Small amounts of bricks, rubble, and soil can be taken to certain sites. Plasterboard can only be deposited at Brighouse, Halifax, and Todmorden sites. Residents can bring up to 2 bags per week for free.
