Jodrell Bank waste arrangements

Jodrell Bank Observatory and Discovery Centre

Different waste arrangements are in place at Jodrell Bank due to its location and the availability of waste contractors in that area.

As of March 2020 all waste and recycling collections are carried out by Ansa Environmental Services Ltd who provide commercial waste collections for Cheshire East Council.

Waste is collected in 2 different waste streams – general (non-recyclable) waste, and mixed recycling consisting of the waste streams detailed in the Ansa mixed recycling info (see useful documents, right of page).

General (non-recyclable waste) is collected and returned to Ansa’s Environmental Hub in Middlewich before being disposed of as Refuse Derived Fuel at the Viridor Waste Management Ltd site in Runcorn. See here for further details.

Mixed recycling waste is also collected and returned to Ansa’s Environmental Hub in Middlewich before being sent to the UPM-Kymmene UK Ltd processing facility in Shotton. See here for further details.

Full details of the waste sites used as well as Ansa’s waste carrier information are detailed in the Ansa waste register in the “useful documents” box, right of page.
