Register for recycling

More than 20,000 residents have registered as part of a move to make things fairer and more cost-effective for Derbyshire residents by helping to reduce the amount of waste that is being brought to Derbyshire recycling centres from outside of the county.

If you live in Derbyshire and haven't yet registered, there's still time – Derbyshire County Council won't be turning away unregistered vehicles immediately but are asking you to sign-up before your next visit.

Entry to the recycling sites will be monitored using automatic number plate recognition technology (ANPR). Each Derbyshire resident over the age of 17 can register up to two vehicles. Registration is free of charge and covers all nine of our recycling centres. If you want to register a van to dispose of your household waste, you'll be required to register each time you wish to visit and van access will last 24 hours, except for camper vans which can be registered in the same way as cars are registered.

If you're unable to register online you can call into your nearest Derbyshire library where a librarian can help you to register. Or you can phone Call Derbyshire on 01629 533190 to speak to someone who can help.
