Bins and the Bin Storage Area

General Waste

The general waste bins are located on the right as you enter the bin storage area. They are all fitted with a large, heavy duty bag to help keep them clean and avoid us having to pay to have the bins cleaned. The bags have to be replaced from time to time. If anyone feels sufficiently community minded to volunteer helping to change them, please get in touch using the contact form. Please get in touch if you're interested!

  • All waste must be bagged and all bags must be tied
  • Food waste in particular must be sealed in a bag that will prevent any leakage
  • Large items must not be placed in the bins or left in the bin storage area.
  • The nearest recycling centre is at Weaving Lane, Dewsbury, WF12 9QR. You can apply for a permit at www.Kirklees.gov.uk
