Residents are advised that Shaw Road Household and Waste Recycling Centre (tip) will be temporarily closed this autumn for essential improvement works.
As an additional option during this time, a temporary waste and recycling centre will be available at the park and ride car park off Showell Road for essential journeys only.
The temporary site will have a limited capacity and residents will not be able to dispose of some types of waste, but staff will be available to assist and make sure delays are kept to a minimum.
As with the closure of Anchor Lane earlier this summer, the essential works are being carried out to significantly improve on-site facilities, improving health, safety and welfare.
They will also help the council to improve the way the site operates in the future for residents, including providing increased capacity and improved recycling facilities.
Anchor Lane will operate as usual during this period from 8am to 4pm, seven days a week and will continue to take the usual types of waste.
The temporary site at the park and ride car park off Showell Road will be available from 9am to 3pm, seven days a week and will have a reduced capacity for types of waste.
Items that can be taken to the temporary site are general bagged waste, dry mixed recycling, garden waste, large and small appliances, fridges, soft furnishings, mattresses, vehicle batteries and tyres.
Please do not take the following items to the temporary site: hardcore/building waste, wood, paint, metal, motor oil, cooking oil, gas bottles, chemicals, plasterboard and hard plastics (such as buckets and bins, plastic patio furniture, large children's toys and plastic gutters). These must be taken to Anchor Lane.
The temporary site can be accessed by car only. It will have a maximum capacity of six cars, operating on a one car in, one car out basis.
Residents using the site will be required to provide two forms of ID in line with current requirements and please be prepared to queue and follow instructions from the employees on site.
