New Household Waste Centre Contract
From the 1st February 2008, HW Martin Waste Ltd took over responsibility for the operation and maintenance of the County Council's 16 Household Waste Recycling Centres. The Centres are now operated under a performance based contract which should increase the amount of waste recycled and composted as well as providing facilities for additional types of materials to be collected. Early indications are that recycling rates overall have increased by at least 20 percentage points.
For more information about facilities on the Centres or to make a complaint please contact the helpline on 01270 759106 which is open Monday to Friday, 9-00am to 5-00pm.
Resident's Household Waste Pass
From 1 October 2007, the Household Waste Recycling Centre at Neston will only be accepting household waste from Cheshire Residents. Cheshire residents who wish to gain access to the centre will be required to display a Resident's Household Waste Pass in their vehicle windscreen. See Resident's Household Waste Pass for further information or telephone our Customer Service Team on 0845 002 0134 between 8.30 a.m and 5 p.m. Monday - Friday.

Bonded Asbestos waste
Special skips for the disposal of bonded asbestos waste are provided at four Centres - Clayhill (Neston); Witton (Northwich); Pyms Lane (Crewe); and Danes Moss (Macclesfield). Note: Please telephone the site (numbers listed below) in advance of your visit to check available capacity and report to the attendant upon arrival.
- It is a requirement of the waste management licence that all bonded asbestos delivered to the Centres should be double bagged or double wrapped in heavy duty polythene and sealed

- keep the material damp
- avoid breaking up large pieces
- ideally transport in an enclosed vehicle or covered trailer
