The exceptions

What we're not allowed to take

Six things, and there's a reason behind each one. If you've got any of them, ring us anyway and we'll tell you where they can go.

Asbestos

Needs a licensed removalist and its own disposal path

Paint, oils and solvents

Classed as hazardous, free drop-off at Detox Your Home days

Gas bottles

Pressurised, most gas suppliers take them back

Car batteries and tyres

Most tyre and battery shops recycle them free

Food and wet waste

Attracts vermin, goes in your council bin

Medical and chemical waste

Needs specialist disposal, ring us and we'll point you somewhere

Worth knowing: if prohibited waste turns up in a bin, the transfer station charges us to separate it and that cost gets passed on. A quick phone call beforehand costs nothing and saves the surprise.
