Household Waste Recycling Centre

The Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC) located at the entrance of the landfill site on Docks Way, is where residents can take household rubbish for recycling or composting, or as a last resort, for burial in landfill.

Please pre-sort your rubbish as far as possible because much of it can be recycled in one stop by using the different bins provided.

Please note the changed opening times from October 2011

The HWRC is free to use for domestic customers only and residents may leave a maximum of 5 black bags a week in the landfill skips

Please do not bring a van to dispose of any household waste or you may be classed as a commercial user and charged.

Recycling at HWRC

Read about items you can recycle at the HWRC.

To get the best use out of the HWRC and to make it safe for residents please take a look at the HWRC rules page.

Separate your waste before you visit and use the different areas and containers to recycle each material type.

No vehicles are allowed onto the site during the last 15 minutes before closing time so that people already using the site have enough time to unload.

Proof of residency within Newport may be required if site staff consider rubbish may have come from a commercial activity.

The HWRC is very busy on bank holiday weekends so please avoid visiting on these days if you can.

Height restriction

A height restriction barrier is in place from 3.15 pm weekdays, from 10.45 am on Saturdays and all day on Sundays.

Use of the HWRC is restricted for vans/commercial vehicles.

Health and safety

The HWRC is a busy site with traffic movements, loading and unloading activities so users should:

  • Be aware of vehicle movements and/or people moving large items
  • Ensure children and animals remain in the vehicle at all times
  • Wear sensible clothing and footwear on the site

Bring banks in the city

You can take your recycling items to one of Newport’s 16 bring banks.

View information about where bring banks are located around the city and what items you can recycle.
