Nantycaws Landfill Site

Permit Number - CP3735PB

Nantycaws Landfill Site has ample void capacity and is able to offer extremely competitive rates for all non hazardous and inert wastes. We welcome all enquires and are able to cater for both pre-treated and non pre-treated wastes.

The landfill site provides an option for the disposal of residual waste in Carmarthenshire and its immediate environs. CWM fully understands and supports through ancillary activities the progressive statutory and regional initiatives to reduce, recycle, reuse and pre treat municipal, commercial and industrial wastes. However, it is envisaged that there will always remain a regional need to cater for the landfilling of this diminishing final fraction. The company objective is to ensure the provision of a professionally managed facility to cater for its customers needs.

We have developed a site infrastructure using ‘entry’ and ‘exit’ weighbridges which allows for swift disposal turnaround time.

Whether you have ‘one offs’, continual, large or small quantities of waste for disposal we offer realistically priced solutions.

Site History

The existing landfill site (Phase 2) has been operational since 1997. Prior to that, Phase 1 which adjoins but is physically separate from Phase 2 was operated by the local authorities. Phase 1 is now under aftercare and restoration.

Design Principle

The site comprises six landfill cells, and each one has been designed on the basis of engineered containment. Ground and surface water is protected against contamination by the provision of a composite geomembrane / mineral liner placed on to a contoured landform.

Restoration

The landfill site will be restored progressively to agricultural land using a composite geomembrane / drainage layer with a further subsoil and topsoil capping layer which will have the dual effect of controlling leachate volumes and restoring the usefulness of the land for stock grazing.

Site Inputs

The site is authorised to accept a maximum of 150,000 tonnes of non hazardous waste per annum. All vehicles depositing waste must report to the weighbridge in the first instance.
