Relaxed Rules at Warwickshire Recycling Centres

Warwickshire County Council's Vehicle Restriction Policy at the county's nine Household Waste Recycling Centres was relaxed in the spring of 2009. A 12 month review of the policy changes and service improvements has recently been conducted resulting in the following key adjustments:

A maximum trailer bed length of 1.83 metres (6 feet)
Exemption for unaccompanied bulky household electrical and electronic equipment delivered in vans to most recycling centres (fridges and freezers not accepted at Wellesbourne)
Exemption for larger trailers ? up to 2.5 metres in length ? for the disposal of unaccompanied compostable green waste on weekdays before 12 noon (not Bank Holidays).

The revised policy, updated WebPages and Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) together with a downloadable vehicle permit application form for residents owning a car-derived van or twin-cab pick-up is at:

Vehicle permit application forms are also available from the Customer Service Centre on 01926 412593.

As reported to WCC Cabinet on 17 June 2010, last year's relaxation of the vehicle restriction policy has been well-received by both users and site operators.
