About

Jameson Road is a landfill facility which has existed on this site since the 1970s.

The site holds an environmental permit to accept non-hazardous waste for disposal and it is regulated by the Environment Agency.

How the waste industry works

Ever wondered what happens to the waste that you put in your bin? The non-recyclable waste doesn’t go straight to landfill – it goes through a complex process to remove every piece of recyclable material possible, and only around 5% ends up in a landfill site.

Future Plans

Although the site has planning permission to operate until 2033, if we tip at our maximum permitted levels it could be closed by 2028.

The site would then be restored and landscaped. Our aim is to work with the local community to agree a planting and restoration scheme that will deliver bio diversity net gain.
