When you arrive at our recycling centres, you'll need to provide:
- proof that you're a Renfrewshire resident, such as a council tax or utility bill

You do not need a permit if you are visiting any of our recycling centres in a car.

Other options
You have other options even if you do not have a car and cannot access our recycling centres.
Check your bin collection day and find out what can go in your bins.
If you have items that are too big to fit in your bins, you can arrange for us to collect them from your home.
