What you can bring?
- Residential green waste only – no tip truck or commercial vehicles.
- Branches must be less than 10cm in diameter, and no longer than roughly one meter so our compactors can handle them.
- No tree trunks.
Attending these events
- Drive into the car park and queue in your vehicle for your turn to unload. We will try to include as many people as possible, but if queues become too long, some vehicles could be turned away.
- For everyone’s safety, please stay in your vehicle except when untying a load. Staff will be on hand to help.
