Collection and Processing of the Household Waste Recycling Centre Wood

Cardiff Council is looking to secure a 6 month recycling contract (with an optional 6-month extension) for the collection and processing of the Household Waste Recycling Centre Wood.

The tonnage is available for collection directly from the HWRCs via RORO’s skips (to be provided) or it can be bulk loaded at Cardiff’s Waste Transfer Station, located at the Lamby Way Depot (CF3 2HP).
