Plan your visit
Our Community Recycling Centre is free and easy to use. Plan your visit to ensure it goes as smoothly as possible:
- Place your items safely in the boot of your car
- Ensure the items are secure and won't move around while you are driving
- Quantities must be domestic only, commercial quantities will not be accepted
- Sort your materials before you arrive, customers with unsorted loads of materials may be asked to drive out and separate them before re-entering. This is to ensure that other customers will not be kept waiting.
