From Blaenau Gwent's pages, quoted or summarised.
In Wales the English DIY waste rules don't apply, so each Welsh council sets its own limits. What this council says is shown above.

Vans, pick-ups and trailers need a Blaenau Gwent Council Permit to Tip (apply via My Council Services); show to attendant on arrival. Not permitted: vans over 3.5 tonnes, Luton vans or similar, flatbed tippers, horseboxes, caravans and motor homes
