- Paper & Cardboard

- Plasterboard and Gypsum waste - Must be disposed of in it own allocated skip and not mixed in with other waste to avoid contamination
These acceptable waste types can either be segregated or mixed in the same skip for GSH to pre-treat, separate and recycle at our specialised facility.
There are however a number of materials that cannot be placed in our skips due to legislation or their hazardous nature. If these items are identified prior to collection they will be removed or if identified after collection then these will be returned after being quarantined and documented for the environment agency and a charge maybe levied for the processing and return of these items.
These include:
- Asbestos
- Fridges, Freezers, Air-Conditioning units
- Tyres
- Electrical Appliances (WEEE)
- Batteries
- Medical Waste
- Fluorescent Light tubes
- Paints (including residues inside paint cans) and solvents
- Aerosols and gas canisters

- Hazardous/ Toxic Waste
We still may be able to dispose of these items for you, for further information contact us for advice.
