On Wednesday 20th December from 7am – 12.30 midday, the vans will be parked at the back of Morrisons car park. This is a great chance to clear out all your unwanted items ahead of the festive period.

No commercial waste can legally be accepted at any of the MHRC’s and any such material will be turned away. Vans are accepted at the MHRC’s subject to a 10 item limitation and a legal declaration that the waste presented is not commercial in nature. As with the Bulky Waste Collection service 2 black bags equals 1 item.
