Staffordshire’s Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs) primary function is to receive household waste. To support local businesses, we also accept trade waste for a fee. Currently the sites accept trade waste from any areas including business outside of Staffordshire which increases the cost of waste disposal to the local authority and impacts on the overall resident experience.
Recently, we have seen an increased number of large vehicles or vans disposing of bulky and trade waste resulting in longer queues and waiting times. To manage this issue, we aim to introduce free van permits to households in Staffordshire, to improve the service for residents visiting the sites.
We are keen to hear your views on the introduction of free van permits, as well as how we manage the disposal of trade waste at Staffordshire’s Household Waste Recycling Centres.
Further details of the proposals can be found here.
