What to know before visiting Drumcoo Tip

1Proving Your Postcode

To keep costs down for ratepayers, attendants need to see proof that you reside in the district. Pack a recent household bill or your driving card before setting off.

2Locating the Yard

Situated near Dungannon, the facility is easily reached via the Dungannon bypass. It is just a stone's throw from the local rugby club, making the route highly familiar for many residents.

3Zero Tolerance on Commercial Rubbish

If you run a business, you will need to find an alternative disposal method. The site is solely provisioned for domestic drop-offs, and inspectors will immediately turn away trade loads.

4Booking Larger Transport

Planning to bring a transit van or a hefty tow-behind? You must secure an electronic pass via the council portal ahead of time, otherwise the barrier will remain firmly shut.

5Smart Boot Packing

Make your trip to this local tip much quicker by bagging up your textiles, glass, and green cuttings separately before you even turn the ignition.

6Staying Safe On-Site

Always stick to the designated walkways, leave the kids securely strapped in the back seat, and move at a snail's pace while navigating the parking bays.

7What Not to Bring

Hazardous elements like corrugated asbestos sheets, industrial paints, and pressurized cylinders are strictly forbidden and will not be accepted under any circumstances.

8Second-Hand Treasures

Check if your old furniture or working electronics could benefit someone else. The dedicated salvage zone is perfect for passing on items that still have plenty of life left.
