Newark Household Waste Recycling Centre

About the scheme

Our scheme in Newark is run by Veolia Environmental Services and Nottinghamshire County Council. It is operated through the local household waste recycling centre. At this site, you can drop off leftover paint from your home or collect paint for your home or local project.

Drop off leftover paint

If you are a resident within the Nottinghamshire local authority area and you have leftover paint from your home that you’d like to pass on for reuse, visit the drop-off point on-site at Newark HWRC to leave your paint. You will need to register your vehicle here before visiting this site.

Groups and individuals will then be able to access the site to collect the paint and use it locally. Find opening times for the household waste recycling centre here.

As this drop-off point is run by the local authority, the site is unable to accept paint donations from businesses. If you are a trader, retailer, manufacturer or other business with leftover paint, click here to find out how you can donate your leftover paint for reuse through the Community RePaint network.

Please note, if you live outside of the Nottingham County Council local authority area, you will not be eligible to access the site. If there is no drop-off point in your local authority area you will need to contact your local authority for guidance on what to do with your leftover paint. You can also adapt this template letter to encourage your local authority to consider collecting leftover paint for reuse at their sites.

Collect paint for your home or project

If you are an individual or group from the local area you can get free paint from this scheme. Nottinghamshire residents can book an appointment to pick up free paint here.
