Civic Amenity visit (skip lorry) – 1 April 2023

The first visit of the skip lorry for 2023 will be taking place on Saturday, 1 April, as follows:

Ingestre: 9am – 10am at Home Farm Court

Tixall:  10.15am – 11.15am at Tixall Village Hall

Please take note of the following, at the request of Stafford Borough Council:

Please be aware that, due to a change in legislation, we will no longer be able to accept sofas or armchairs at the 2023 Civic Amenity Visits.  This is due to legislation around Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) which are found in soft furnishings, these items cannot be crushed (as they would be in the collection vehicle) and need to be collected separately either by arrangement with Stafford Borough Council or taken to designated containers at the Household Waste Recycling Centres in Stafford and Stone.

There will be an advisory sign put out on collection days, however, please be mindful of this advance notice as we would not wish you to make a wasted journey.
