Our centres now provide a full waste disposal service, accepting the following waste types - bags of household waste, electrical Items (including lamps, tv screens and monitors), white goods, mattresses, wood (including small furniture), cardboard, garden waste, scrap metal, rubble, dry mixed recyclables, textiles, cooking oil, engine oil, hazardous household items such solvent based paint, pesticides etc, car batteries.
There is no requirement to book a slot although please be mindful that delays are still being experienced before vehicles can enter our waste centres.
Temporary measures to manage traffic at each site are in place.
Due to physical distancing requirements, the number of vehicles allowed into each site at any one time is strictly limited. Once capacity is reached we will operate a policy of 'one vehicle out, one vehicle in'.
Cones and signage are in place to help guide drivers safely into the each site. Please follow the direction of staff on hand to manage traffic. Signs that give an indication of waiting times are in place, but it is fully anticipated there will be delays before entering a centre.
Glass and other dry recyclable materials are now accepted. Alternatively you can continue to utilise the network of public collection points across the city. Further information on the location of these sites can be found via the Council website. Please follow this link for further information.
No - this will not be accepted at our centres. All waste is subject to a visual inspection by on-site staff and you may be asked to provide proof of where the waste came from. Any waste that is suspected to be commercial will not be accepted. You may face enforcement action if an offence has been committed by the depositing of trade or commercial waste at one of our sites.
From Monday 3rd August, vans used by residents will be accepted at Easter Queenslie only between 08:00 - 11:00 and 13:00 - 16:00. The total weight of the van must be less than 3.5 tonnes.
Additional signage and cones are in place to ensure that physical distancing is adhered to at all times and ensure the safety of residents and staff. We ask that people travel alone to our centres where ever possible. However, if you need to move a larger item then you can bring another person from your own household to assist you.
Please follow Government guidance on the use of face coverings. All Council jobs have been risk assessed for Covid-19 and staff will wear appropriate PPE as required for the job.
We are pleased to advise that from 10 December we will operate a by-request-only service for bulk uplifts from residents in flats and main door properties.
A request-only service means the council will no longer be collecting bulky waste from designated pick-up points on 'bulk day'.
Residents can place a request on MyGlasgow App or by using our online form.
For more information please visit our Bulky Waste page.
From Monday 3rd August, vans used by residents will be accepted at Easter Queenslie only between 08:00 - 11:00 and 13:00 - 16:00. Entry will be refused at any other times. This is to enable us to safely manage the number of vans using the centre.
Please do not visit any of our other centres (Dawsholm, Shieldhall or Polmadie) to use a van to transport your household materials as you will be refused entry. The total weight of the van must be less than 3.5 tonnes.
All vans are required to report to the weighbridge at Easter Queenslie and not the main HWRC entry point. Staff on site will then provide direction to the tipping location.
Vans used by residents will be accepted at Easter Queenslie only between 08:00 - 11:00 and 13:00 - 16:00.
