WATER, FUEL, WASTE & RECYCLING
Dart Harbour is committed to protecting the environment and recycling waste as much as possible.
Dart Harbour and its contractors separate and recycle harbour waste and approximately 60 percent of all waste deposited in harbour facilities is recycled.
Any person found illegally disposing of hazardous material (e.g. flares, batteries, oil etc) or fly tipping will be prosecuted. We provide waste facilities for berth holders and visitors only.
We ask customers when disposing of their waste to separate glass, cans, plastic & cardboard from general waste. Our waste contractor then separates the general waste even more for further recycling.
Please bag and bin your rubbish. Recycle and re-use where possible and if the bins are full, please contact staff on the water via VHF Ch. 11. Or phone the Harbour office. Please do not leave waste bags on pontoons as they encourage sea gulls. All hazardous waste, batteries or oil should be taken home or deposited in approved facilities by prior arrangement with the Harbour Office. Costs may be associated with large quantities.
Waste facilities are available Mid-Stream Dartmouth, Town Jetty, Dittisham & Stoke Gabriel. Please only leave in designated facility. Refer to map
