Preparing for your trip to Coalville Tip

1Getting to Linden Way

Nestled in the industrial sector on Linden Way, this local tip is incredibly easy to reach from the Ashby Road (A511) roundabout. It is located just a stone's throw from the old Snibston Colliery area.

2Are You a Local Resident?

To prevent cross-border dumping from neighbouring authorities, gate operators will ask to see proof of your address. A bank statement from the last three months works perfectly for this.

3Permits for Trailers and Vans

While estate cars and hatchbacks are waved right through, commercial-type vehicles face restrictions. You will need to apply for a free digital pass via the website if you drive a transit or tow a heavy load.

4Pre-Sorting and On-Site Hazards

Maximize your safety by breaking down bulky boxes before you arrive. Once parked, avoid crossing behind reversing vehicles and keep young children and pets securely inside your car at all times.

5Zero Tolerance for Commercial Rubbish

This facility caters strictly to everyday household clear-outs. Independent contractors, builders, and self-employed tradesmen must use licensed commercial weighbridges elsewhere in the county.

6The On-Site Charity Shop

Got a coffee table or a set of golf clubs gathering dust? Hand them over at the salvage point near the entrance so they can be sold on to support various local community projects.

7Hazardous Materials Not Accepted

Be aware of strict environmental regulations regarding hazardous waste at this site. Roofing sheets containing asbestos, along with vehicle airbags and marine flares, are entirely prohibited.
