What to know before visiting Corby Tip

1Arriving at the Kettering Road Perimeter

Positioned handily near the Southern Gateway roundabout, this facility is simple to spot. As you approach the entrance, be mindful of the slip road, especially during peak weekend hours when the queue can occasionally trail back.

2Showing You Belong in the Borough

Because this site operates on regional taxpayer funding, non-residents are not accommodated. You will be prompted by staff to present a recent piece of official mail or your driving photocard to prove your local affiliation.

3Getting the Green Light for Large Hauls

Are you planning to tackle your attic clear-out using a rented flatbed or a sizeable trailer? Standard automobiles face no hurdles, but larger transport methods require you to apply for an electronic exemption via the council website before you depart.

4Navigating the Bays Securely

With multiple vehicles reversing into tight spots, awareness is critical. Please ensure you are wearing sturdy, closed shoes, and absolutely insist that any children or pets remain securely inside the car cabin throughout your visit.

5No Corporate Clearances Allowed

There is a strict prohibition on the disposal of any materials stemming from a paid enterprise. If the on-site team suspects you are a tradesperson dumping client waste, you will be swiftly directed to a commercial weighbridge instead.

6Sparing Items from the Crusher

Think twice before throwing decent housewares into the general scrap. There is a designated drop zone for pre-loved goods, giving your unwanted tables, chairs, or electronics a chance to be repurposed within the community.

7Forbidden Discards

Certain structural and chemical materials cannot be handled by the staff here. This rubbish tip is entirely off-limits for dangerously combustible items like propane cylinders and any fibrous sheets containing asbestos.
