What materials can I bring to the Recycling Centres?
Recycling Centres are provided for the reuse, recycling,
composting and disposal of large and/or hazardous items of
household waste. We ask you to separate them into the correct
containers so that we can maximise the amount we recycle. To find
out more about the materials we accept, please go to
Materials We Take.
What can I do with hazardous waste?
Controlled amounts of hazardous waste from households can
be brought to the Recycling Centres for safe disposal. Please
see an attendant when you get to the site. If you have any
concerns about the waste, please contact Council Connect on 01225

Vehicles and Van Permit System
What types of vehicles are allowed at the Recycling
Centres?
Recycling Centres are purely for the use of private householders
and should not be used for business waste. Vans, small lorries or
large trailers will need a permit before they are allowed in. For
more details of restrictions on vehicles, please go to
Van Permit System.
What is the Van Permit System?
The van permit system has been introduced to stop the misuse of
the site by businesses. If you are a resident of Bath and
North East Somerset with a van, small lorry or trailer who wishes
to make use of the site, you will need to apply for a permit.
These are free of charge.
To find out more about the scheme including the vehicles covered
by the scheme and how to apply for a permit, please go to
Van Permit System.
