Restrictions at Household Waste Recycling Centres eased
Residents will be able to visit our Household Waste Recycling Centres any day of the week from today 5th August 2020.
The layout of our nine centres have been improved to accommodate more vehicles on site at any one time while allowing visitors to maintain two metre social distancing – meaning the odd and even number plate system put in place to restrict the number of vehicles visiting the sites is no longer in place.
Councillor Simon Spencer, Derbyshire County Council’s Cabinet Member for Highways Transport and Infrastructure, said:
“I’d like to thank the public for their patience while we’ve been dealing with this unprecedented situation and for continuing to follow our instructions to help things run smoothly.
“I’m pleased that we’ve been able to improve the layout of our sites to accommodate more vehicles but it’s still not business as usual.
“We’re still not at full capacity so visitors should still be prepared to queue at busy times or return at a quieter time. Social distancing measures are still in place and site users will still need to carry their own waste. Skips and ramps should only be approached when it’s clear to do so and visitors should wash their hands when they get home and, of course, stay at home if they’ve had coronavirus symptoms in the last 14 days, are self-isolating or at high risk of contracting the virus.”
Our recycling centres open seven days a week from 8.30am-6pm in the following locations: Ashbourne, Bolsover, Bretby, Chesterfield, Glossop, Ilkeston, Loscoe, Northwood (Darley Dale) and Waterswallows - near Buxton.
Anyone using the sites should wear protective gloves and suitable clothing and footwear to allow them to carry their own waste. Only one person per vehicle should get out of the vehicle unless they need someone to help lift heavy items and children and pets should remain in the vehicle for their own safety and the safety of others.
The queue checking system on the our website is no longer in place now more vehicles are allowed on site.

Business or trade waste is not accepted.
The site at Waterswallows is operated on the council’s behalf by SUEZ Recycling and Recovery UK and the remaining eight are operated by Renewi UK Services Ltd.
Derby City Council runs a separate household waste recycling centre at Raynesway in Derby which is subject to separate restrictions.

As more businesses reopen this weekend, everyone should continue to keep a safe distance from others.
Where you can't keep 2 metres apart, you can stay 1 metre apart – as long as you follow certain precautions.

This summer’s summer activities for schoolchildren in South Derbyshire have been cancelled due to social distancing restrictions.
The scheme was due to take place between the 27 July and 28 August and would have offered over 100 sessions across the District.
Councillor Dan Pegg, Chair of Active South Derbyshire, said:
“It is with real sadness that we have made the decision to cancel this year’s Summer Playscheme.
“I know it is very popular with children from across South Derbyshire and we looked at all the options before very reluctantly reaching the conclusion that it wasn’t possible to deliver the activities while following social distancing guidelines.
“I hope that children in South Derbyshire will continue to remain active this summer while continuing to remain safe and socially distanced.”
The South Derbyshire Summer Playschemes have been running for well over a decade and are a very popular service, with over 6,000 young people attending sessions each year which are delivered with funding from parish councils and the South Derbyshire Community Safety Partnership.
Active South Derbyshire plans to reschedule a number of these cancelled sessions, once restrictions are lifted, on evenings, weekends and during half term holidays.
To keep up to date with our service and any future sessions, check the Active South Derbyshire Facebook page: @ActiveSouthDerbyshire.

We’ve teamed up with partners across Derbyshire to deliver a message worth repeating: stay at home, protect the NHS, and save lives.
We’re releasing this short video together ahead of the predicted warmer weather this weekend, and the Easter weekend that follows.
It is our duty to try and limit the spread of coronavirus but we know that with sunnier skies comes the temptation to go out and get together with family and friends.
But it is critically important that we all continue to abide by the ongoing restrictions on movement and the rules on social distancing.
Everyone featured in this video plays a role in society that means they don’t have the luxury of staying at home. They all head out to work every day to keep our society moving.
So please watch the short clip and remember that we are all in this together. We need to protect the NHS, and by staying at home and heading out only locally, we can all play our part in saving lives.
This video has been created by a team including Derbyshire Constabulary, Derbyshire Fire and Rescue Service, Derbyshire County Council, Derby City Council, Derby Mountain Rescue Team, the Peak District National Park Authority, High Peak Borough Council, South Derbyshire District Council, Derbyshire Dales District Council, Chesterfield Royal Hospital NHS Foundation Trust, the University Hospitals of Derby and Burton, and the Central England Co-op.
