Bookings for all vans, pick-ups and trailers

You must pre-book if visiting a recycling centre with any sized van, pick-up or trailer carrying household or commercial waste.

You don't need to book visits for cars carrying household waste, or mobility vehicles.

Once you’ve booked we’ll email you a booking reference.

Site staff will check your booking electronically on arrival.


Commercial waste

Current guidance on commercial waste at recycling centres


Why we have a booking system

Vans and trailers can take longer to unload and take up more space when queuing. This can increase traffic disruption. Having a booking system helps reduce queues and keeps traffic flowing.

Small vans and pick-ups now need to book. We consider it fairer to include vehicles that are generally associated with commercial use.

We accept that some households use these vehicles as their domestic vehicle. These vehicles will still need to book, but there will be no charge if they are bringing household waste.
