It is free to drop off your scrap metal, including bicycles, barbecues, small appliances, whiteware, and pots and pans.

Charges also apply for green waste, tyres, car seats and some e-waste such as TVs and monitors.
The disposal of other e-waste and recyclable cardboard items will be free.
Hazardous waste, gas bottles, items containing oil or fuel and tyres covered in dirt won't be accepted either.
Flax, cabbage tree leaves, trees or branches over 10cm in diameter, and general rubbish cannot be included in green waste but will be accepted as general rubbish.
