What to know before visiting Carrickmore Tip

1Locating the Tyrone Heartland Depot

Nestled centrally within County Tyrone, the facility is easily accessed off the main village road network. It is conveniently situated just a short distance from Dean Maguirc College.

2Safeguarding Taxpayer Resources

To ensure the site is used solely by those who fund it, staff will ask for your ratepayer credentials. A quick flash of a localized utility letter or a valid photo ID keeps the queue moving.

3Rented Vans and Substantial Trailers

If your spring clean requires a rented box van or a large capacity trailer, you cannot just arrive unannounced. Secure your large-vehicle clearance via the council's online system well before your journey.

4Gantry Safety and Speed Limits

Pre-sort your plastics, metals, and cardboard at home to minimize your time on the gantries. Adhere to the strict pedestrian zones and low speed limits at the tip to ensure everyone's safety.

5Commercial Dumping Lockdown

Corporate and trade dumping is entirely locked out of this specific facility. Roofers, joiners, and other enterprises must find private, paid disposal solutions for their operational debris.

6Second Chances and Biohazards

Give old furniture a second chance by leaving it in the designated salvage bays. In stark contrast, biohazards, liquid paint, and structural asbestos are unequivocally banned from the premises.
