What to know before visiting Judkins Tip

1Entry Requirements and Proof of Address

You cannot simply drive in; a pre-booked calendar slot is mandatory for all visitors. Furthermore, gate attendants will verify your identity using a recent official letter to ensure you reside in the catchment area.

2Locating the Tuttle Hill Entrance

Located in Nuneaton, the main gates are positioned directly on the B4114 Tuttle Hill. The massive site is hard to miss, sitting adjacent to the old quarry and near the Camp Hill district.

3Applying for Van Vouchers

Larger transit options, including flatbeds and box vans, require a pre-approved digital certificate. Without this official documentation, the ANPR cameras will flag your vehicle and access will be denied.

4Health, Wellbeing, and Sorting

When driving into the tip, please observe the strict 5mph speed limit. Visitors are also heavily encouraged to wear sturdy boots and gloves, as lifting heavy appliances into the elevated containers can cause injury.

5Corporate Waste is Prohibited

This compound is funded entirely for private citizens. If you are emptying a rental property or clearing a shop floor, you must hire a private skip, as corporate refuse is unlawful here.

6Supporting the Local Charity Outlet

Before you throw anything into the metal or wood bins, check if it could be repurposed. The dedicated reuse shop on the premises takes in decent furniture and garden tools to raise money for community causes.

7Toxic Substances and Restrictions

Not everything can be processed at this compound. Strict environmental guidelines mean you must safely manage your own disposal of liquid chemicals, compressed gases, and roofing materials elsewhere.
