Vans Carrying Household Waste
To ensure only Hounslow residents benefit from being able to dispose, recycle and compost van loads of waste at Space Waye, the following rules will apply.
- All vans and cars with trailers must report to the weighbridge office
- Please note that if your van or trailer has household waste you must still report to the weighbridge office at trade times
- Only one van/trailer loads per London Borough of Hounslow household will be allowed to tip household waste free of charge in any one calendar year.
- The same van/trailer may only tip household waste once free of charge in any one calendar year. The second visit will be fully chargeable with notification of this charge made on completion of the van/trailers first visit.
- If you are borrowing a van/trailer from another person, then it is your responsibility to determine whether or not a charge will apply when using facilities at Space Waye.
- Only London Borough of Hounslow Residents with their Council Tax Documentation will be able to tip using a van – customers from outside Hounslow Borough using a van must use their own local Reuse and Recycling Facilities.
- Upon entering the site, the named person must show their relevant Hounslow Council Tax Demand and a form of I.D. Producing these documents do not guarantee a free tip (see Waste from home improvements policy attached). If you do not have your Council Tax with you, and you still wish to tip, the full charge will be payable, and no refunds will be made under any circumstances.
- All vans will be restricted to the hours of operation as displayed at the site.
- The use of a removal company or a ‘man-with-a-van’, or an associated trade to unload waste at Space Waye categorises the waste as trade derived and as such fully chargeable.
- Landlords disposing of waste arising from rental properties will be charged at the full trade rate.
- Only waste for which the site has a Waste Management Licence can be accepted and consequently must be checked by staff on the site.
- Mixed loads of waste (household and DIY/building waste) that exceed 100 litres (waste by volume) are classified as fully chargeable – any waste tipped from a mixed load will be charged for. Waste cannot be separated on-site into chargeable and non-chargeable waste.
- By tipping waste, you have acknowledged the decision of the weighbridge operator.
