Dump your junk
You may or may not be aware that you now require a permit if you wish to take your waste to your local tip in a van. These permits are free and can be applied for on the Cornwall Council website.
But what about using my Dash Drive hire van?
Vans hired by a householder for 3 days or less to deposit household waste will be allowed to enter the Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC) without a permit. The householder will be required to present the hire agreement to site staff upon arrival at the HWRC and complete a trade waste disclaimer confirming the waste is household and not trade waste.
Remember! Take your rental agreement to proof you are hiring the van.
For hire periods over 3 days, the vehicle will not be allowed to enter the site without a permit.
For more information or to apply for a permit visit the Vehicle permit scheme page on the Cornwall Council Website, or call Cornwall Council on 0300 1234 141.
