- Covering Southern England
Professional farm plastic, tyre, and waste recycling services. No membership fees – pay only for what you recycle.
We provide farm waste collection services for farmers, estates and agricultural businesses across Southern England. From silage wrap and fertiliser bags to old tyres and waste oil, we collect your farm waste, sort it and send it on for recycling, so your farm waste disposal is handled properly, and your farmyard stays tidy.
Annual farm plastic recycling hub events across Devon, Somerset, Dorset and Bristol, held every year since 2004.
We charge you only for what we collect, whether this is once a year or many times a year.
Farm Waste Solutions is the authorised Solway collector covering:
As the authorised Solway Recycling collector, we use the Solway Bin & Liner System to keep your farm plastics clean, dry and separated.
We bale all plastics at our yard at Andover Down, Hampshire, and send them to UK-based recyclers, where they are shredded, washed, and melted into polymer pellets ready for reuse.
Our farm waste collection and agricultural waste recycling services cover farms across Hampshire, Wiltshire, Dorset, Somerset, Berkshire, Surrey, Sussex and Kent, as well as Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire, Gloucestershire, Warwickshire and parts of Shropshire. For farms in Devon, our South West hub events give you a local drop-off point.
Comprehensive recycling solutions for farmers and agricultural businesses. Whatever your farm produces, our agricultural waste services make recycling and disposal simple, with one call to arrange everything.
Authorised Solway collector. Silage wrap, sheet, bags, string and all farm plastics with the Bin & Liner System. We offer farm plastic waste collection direct from your yard, charged per liner, and the more liners you have, the lower the price per liner. It is the easy way to handle farm plastic disposal without burning or burying it.
Car, agricultural and lorry tyres, tracks and tyres on rims – from a few to thousands. We send a vehicle sized to the job, from a pickup for a handful of tyres to an artic for thousands, so farm tyre disposal is simple, however many you have.
Waste oil is collected by tanker from farms and agricultural businesses. No membership fees. Our farm waste oil collection service suits a single tank or several across different sites. Waste oil is classed as hazardous waste, so we collect it directly from your farm and make sure it is disposed of and recycled properly.
Our own articulated HGV with walking floor and curtainside trailers for bulk loads. We regularly move bulk compost and mulch across the region, along with palletised and bagged goods, at competitive haulage rates.
Solway boards in 6mm, 9mm and 12mm, made from the farm plastics we collect. Our recycled plastic boards come in 8ft x 4ft sheets as standard, giving your old farm plastics a second life as a durable, useful product.
Annual plastic recycling hubs across the South West, plus tyre recycling hub days.

Good farm waste management starts with careful agricultural waste handling. Here is how our service works:
Get in touch
Call 01264 554477 or email us to tell us what you have and roughly how much.
Separate your waste
Use the Solway Bin & Liner System to keep each type of plastic in its own liner, and keep tyres and waste oil apart. Waste oil should be stored in a sound, bunded tank.
Collection or drop-off
We collect from your farm by appointment, or you can bring your waste to a hub event or to our yard at Andover Down.
Recycled in the UK
Your plastics are baled at our yard and sent to UK-based recyclers. You only pay for what we collect.
Regular collections make it easier to plan your farm waste management for the year ahead and stop waste building up around the yard.
Bring your old tyres to one of five hub days across Dorset, Devon and Somerset. Car, lorry and agricultural tyres are all accepted. Pay on the day by card or cheque. There is no need to pre-pay; just email or call to book your slot.

We specialise in collecting and recycling a wide range of farm plastics using the Solway Bin & Liner System:
Used properly, one liner can hold over 250 round bale wraps. Each material should go in its own liner, so it stays clean and can be recycled. Not sure if something can go in? Give us a call, and we will let you know.
Since 2006, farmers in England and Wales have not been able to burn or bury their farm plastics, and farm waste needs to be disposed of with a proper audit trail.
Our co-founder, Ian Kitson, first saw the need for a reliable farm waste recycling service back then, and has worked in farm waste management ever since.
The recycling of agricultural waste is good for your farm too:
Farm Waste Solutions was founded in 2024 by Ian Kitson and Ed Du Val. Ian brings decades of experience in farm waste management, and Ed is the managing partner of Apsley Farms, one of the UK’s leading anaerobic digestion plants. Together with our partner, Solway Recycling, we make sure your farm waste is processed responsibly.

General farm waste is the everyday waste a farm produces that is not natural material, such as plastics, packaging, tyres, waste oil and metal. Manure and slurry spread on your own land as fertiliser are not normally treated as waste.
Good agricultural waste disposal starts with keeping each type of waste separate, storing it safely and using a registered waste carrier to take it away. We collect farm plastics, tyres and waste oil from your farm, or you can bring them to one of our hub events.
Agricultural waste management is how a farm stores, handles, reduces and disposes of its waste. A simple farm waste management plan sets out what waste you produce, where it is kept and who collects it, so nothing builds up.
Buy in bulk to cut down on packaging, reuse what you can, and keep plastics clean and dry so they can be recycled rather than sent to landfill. Booking regular collections also stops waste building up around the farm.
All plastics are baled at our yard and sent to UK-based recyclers, where they are shredded, washed and melted down into polymer pellets. Some of it comes back as Solway recycled plastic boards, which we sell.
At our tyre recycling hub days, car tyres are £220 per tonne, lorry tyres £270 per tonne and agricultural tyres £300 per tonne, all plus VAT, with a minimum charge of £70 + VAT per load. Contact us for a quote for a collection from your farm.
Contact us today for a quote or book your plastic hub collection. Call 01264 554477 or email info@farmwastesolutions.co.uk. Whether you need a one-off farm waste collection or regular agricultural waste recycling, our team is here to help.
