recycling sites

The recycling sites across the district are a very popular way of recycling. However, we are encountering the following problems:

  • Cardboard boxes being left on the ground - please take your cardboard home with you or recycle it (see chart below).
  • If any of the banks are full, please take your recycling home or to another site - do not put it on the ground.
  • Carrier bags that are left at ANY of the static sites go to landfill. Carrier bags can be recycled at all of the Household Waste Recycling Centres.
  • People leaving items such as TV’s, ironing boards, lawn mowers, bathroom suites etc are FLYTIPPING and liable for prosecution.
