Household Recycling Centres (HRCs)

Please help us to recycle as much as possible by separating your items before you visit the site. If you bring black bags of mixed rubbish then staff on site may sort through the bags to make sure we are recycling as much as possible and therefore stopping unnecessary amounts of recycling going to landfill.

If you need assistance whilst at the HRC sites, the staff are happy to help.

Please note: that the due to health and safety, site staff are not obliged to assist in lifting builders bags of waste, and we do not have machinery designed to lift these.
