Disposal at Council Recycling Centres
Following recent changes in legislation governing the transport and disposal of waste, Council procedures for businesses disposing of commercial waste have changed.
All Businesses must pay to dispose of their waste at the Council's 2 Recycling Centres.
Businesses disposing of a third parties waste e.g. Plumbers, Builders etc. must register with the Environment & Heritage Service on 0845 302 0008 at a cost of £120 for 3 years registration and then pay to dispose of their waste. Businesses disposing of their own waste e.g. Restaurants, Shops etc. do not need to register but have to pay to dispose of their waste.
