Household waste recycling centres

Household waste recycling centres

The Household Waste and Recycling Centres in Hampshire are run by Hampshire County Council and residents can use any of these sites.

You must book an appointment to dispose of your items. Visit the Hampshire County Council website for more information.

The closest sites for our residents are:

• Springwell Lane, Hartley Wintney
• Wade Road, Basingstoke
• Eelmoor Road, Farnborough

Upholstered seating disposal

New laws require domestic upholstered seating to be disposed of differently to other waste. Some items may contain a chemical substance that could cause damage to the environment when broken up.

Upholstered items including dining chairs, armchairs, sofas, foot stools, beanbags and floor cushions can be taken to Wade Road and Eelmoor Road centres for disposal. They need to be not damaged and/or made good. Springwell Lane does not accept this type of waste as it is a smaller site.

You can email recycling@hants.gov.uk for further advice about any item you wish to dispose of.

Any upholstered domestic seating items that you no longer wish to keep can still be passed on for reuse provided the item is not damaged (beyond minor repair) and has a fire safety label attached.
