Yes, you do need to book an appointment to visit a recycling center if you are using a trailer or a large vehicle that exceeds two tonnes. Here's a summary of how the booking system works:
| Vehicle Type | Booking Requirement |
|---|---|
| Large vehicles (over 2 tonnes) | Required to book a slot |
| Passenger vehicles accommodating disabled | Not required to book |
| Camper vans with small waste | Not required to book |
| All other vehicles | No booking needed |
You can make a booking up to a week in advance or on the same day as your visit. It's important to arrive at your allotted time, and if you don't have a booking for a required vehicle, you won't be allowed access.
If you want to make a booking, you can do so online here.
