How are the charges worked out?
The charges are worked out on the quantity of each single type of material – as individual items, bags or trailer loads.
- A bag is equivalent to a standard small, plastic sand or aggregate bag from DIY stores, that can be safely lifted by one person. A part-filled bag counts as one bag.
- A trailer load is based on a1.8m x 1.25m x 0.5m trailer.
- Unbagged or loose waste will be charged at the bag rate, based on 20kg per bag for rubble.
1. A member of staff will assess the quantity to calculate the charge, and will weigh the waste if possible.
2. They will advise you of the charge based on the weight or their reasonable assessment of the load.
3. You are under no obligation to pay the charge, but you will not be allowed to dispose of items without making payment. You will be able to dispose of any household waste free of charge.
How do I pay?
You can pay by credit or debit card at the payment machines at the sites.
