Our popular listings

Circular economy is a framework to use and manage materials required to meet the needs of society in such a way that does not deplete finite resources, retains value in closed-loop systems, and regenerates degraded ecological systems. The circular economy framework provides the following three guiding principles: eliminate waste and pollution, keep materials in use, and regenerate natural systems.

Recycle Central Group

No bookings are needed. To dispose of waste at one of our facilities, simply bring the waste in your vehicle and follow instructions from our staff when you arrive at the weighbridge.

You will be charged according to the weight you dispose of, just as you would at a council landfill. Please ensure that you are dressed appropriately and wear closed-in shoes.

When your unloaded vehicle is weighed on the weighbridge, you will be charged by card or cash.
