and i have a white van :)

 

You can still take it to the recycling centre in a white van you just need to contact them in advance for either a one off permit or an annual 12 visit permit, both free.

Hi.Any one knows a place to dispose wood waste for free ?

 

Yeah, burn it yourself.

If you're a business you have to pay for waste disposal (unless you can find a register waste contractor who will take it for free). This might seem harsh for simple wood waste, but its a result of all the fly tipping.

 

If you're a private individual, any of the recycling sites will take it:

Its the other way round. Fly tipping is the result of people charging rip off prices to get rid of rubbish ,and the council dumps stopping vans using the tips.

Wrong again Tone, fly tipping is due to arrogance, greed, stupidity and selfishness on the part of the fly tippers.

 

Plus, wrong again on the vans thing, see my previous post.

Totally agree. It's been made too difficult to dispose of things properly now.

Agree and disagree.

The council can barely afford most services. It is hardly fair to subsidise private companies by taking waste off there hand for free. Private individuals can simply take waste to the tips for free in a car or 12 times per year in a van if they apply. Waste costs a lot to sort through and dispose. We have private companies that do this and they charge the market rate. Businesses should pay this rather than fly tip. The market rate is quite high so I can see why companies like to fly tip and make extra profit. It doesn't make it right though.

Long wheelbase vans are NOT permitted to use the council dumps. It even tells you that on the signs outside the tips.
