Bathroom suites
If residents have removed a bathroom suite from their property they are permitted to dispose of small quantities of this waste at any of our recycling centres, in line with our DIY acceptance criteria (see below).
Larger scale DIY jobs, renovations or refurbishments are not minor repairs and waste generated by such projects are not accepted at recycling centres even if you carry them out yourself to your own home.
DIY waste acceptance criteria
A single bathroom suite item will be accepted.
Residents must not exceed four single visits per household in any four week period.
DIY waste must have been produced by residents and cannot have not come from construction or demolition works for which a payment has been made.
If construction or home improvement work has been carried out by a tradesperson, it is their legal responsibility to dispose of any waste that is produced.
If you are hiring a van to transport your own Household Waste to a recycling centre, you must arrange temporary access.
Alternatively, you could hire a skip, get a skip bag, or contact your district council who may offer a chargeable bulky waste collection.
