Waste and Recycling A-Z

If you need Japanese knotweed waste collected, there will be a substantial collection charge. Contact a member of the Invasive Non Native Species Association (INNSA), or contact us for a quote.

Japanese Knotweed is harmful to the environment, extremely invasive and is difficult to kill. Do not include Japanese Knotweed with your waste for collection or take it to the local tip. You would be breaking laws controlling how this is dealt with and could be prosecuted.
