HWRC Winter Opening Times

Sheffield City Council and Veolia Environmental Services would like to remind residents that from Tuesday 1 October, the opening times at the five Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs) found in Beighton, Deepcar, High Green, Shirecliffe and on Blackstock Road are changing to 10am – 4pm until 31 March 2014.

The HWRCs are provided for Sheffield residents to dispose of household waste from their own homes, such as: garden waste, electrical or electronic equipment, furniture and other bulky household items.

Veolia Environmental Services would also like to remind residents that the five HWRCs operate a vehicle permit scheme. Veolia Environmental Services operates the permit scheme on behalf of Sheffield City Council, to prevent the illegal disposal of trade waste at any of the sites. The rules mean that 4x4s with pickups, small vans, Short Wheel Base transit vans, mini buses and cars with trailers will only be allowed on site with a permit.
