Household Waste Recycling Centres

We provide five Household Waste Recycling Centres and these are operated by our contractors Veolia.  Householders can take bulky items, garden waste, electrical or electronic equipment, furniture and metals to be recycled where practicable or otherwise disposed of.

 

 

 

Summer (April - September): 8:00am - 7:30pm

Winter (October - March): 8:00am - 5:30pm

(please note the opening times adjust on the weekend when the clocks are altered)

 

Sites are open every day except Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year's Day. Please note that the sites will close at 3.00pm on 24th and 31st December 2009.

 

 

Try to time your visit for a weekday morning to avoid the busiest periods. Weekends, afternoons and Bank Holidays can be very busy so you may experience delays.

 

 

Sheffield’s five Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs) are provided for Sheffield householders, to dispose of waste from their own home. 

 

If you wish to visit any Household Waste recycling Centre in Sheffield using a van or trailer, you will need to book in prior to your visit to help manage traffic and waste on site. To do this, please contact Veolia on 2734567.

 

From 11 January 2010 a vehicle permit system will be in operation at these sites to prevent the illegal disposal of trade waste.

 

From this date, it you are a resident of Sheffield and wish to visit a HWRC with a van or trailer you will need either a permit or approval for a one off visit.  Luton box vans, Van pickups and flat beds (excluding 4x4s), Long Wheel Base transit vans and twin axled vehicles will not be allowed on site from 30th November 2009. A permit cannot be issued for these types of vehicle.

 

 

If the only vehicle in your household is a van or you wish to bring a trailer on site, you can apply for a permit. It’s easy to apply for a permit, just contact Veolia Environmental Services .  If your application is successful, you will receive a permit for 12 visits to your nominated site. Each household is entitled to a maximum of 12 visits per year.

 

To apply call: 0114 273 4567 or email: sheffieldenquiries@veolia.co.uk

 

A leaflet with full details of the scheme can be downloaded from the Veolia website.

 

 

If your van is not the only form of transport in your household or if you wish to visit a site with a van that is not registered to your address, you can apply for a one-off visit. It’s easy to apply for a one-off visit, just call Veolia Environmental Services and provide your name, address, vehicle details and waste type. One-off visits are provided for those occasions, such as house moves where you have more waste than your can fit in your car.
