WE HAVE THREE TYPES OF SITE: -

SMALL-SCALE SITES: Generally, these can take green waste from civic amenity sites, local authority twin-bin collections and landscape gardeners’ output. Usually they can take timber products which are “clean” including virgin timber, MDF, chipboard, hardboard and other composite timber and boards provided they do not have paints, organic solvent-based preservatives or plastic surfaces on them. These sites also handle paper products, crop residues, vegetable residues from packing stations and animal manures.

LARGER SITES WITH ENVIRONMENTAL PERMITS: These can usually take a much wider range of materials including solids and liquids.

NATIONAL LAND BANK: We have land banks across the country where material can be accepted for animal bedding, feeding, or for spreading direct to land. We have numerous contacts around the country so, if we do not have a site already established near to your source of waste, then we would be happy to discuss the possibility of setting one up.

Materials

We require materials which are of benefit to the land. So, if the waste is biodegradable or contains mineral nutrients that we need to grow crops, then we can take it and would wish to do so. However, legislation and regulation do not always allow us to do that.
