Recycling Centre hours change in Autumn
Nottinghamshire Recycling Centres operated by Veolia (Nottinghamshire County Council’s waste contractors) are changing to autumn opening hours from Tuesday 1st October.
As Summer draws to an end and you’re sorting the house, garage and garden make sure to make a note of the new opening hours at the Recycling Centres. Residents in Nottinghamshire will be able to visit their local Recycling Centre from 8am to 6pm daily until the end of October. From the start of November to the end of February the hours change to 8am to 4pm daily.
The Recycling Centres are able to recycle items such as: garden waste, wood, cooking oil, tv’s and monitors, batteries, glass bottles and jars, electrical and electronic items, furniture, batteries including car batteries, engine oil, scrap metal, textiles, bric-a-brac, fluorescent tubes and light bulbs and small quantities of soil and hardcore. All waste must be from Nottinghamshire resident’s own homes. Find out what can and can’t be recycled in Nottinghamshire here: www.nottinghamshire.gov.uk/recycling
Visiting a Recycling Centre will be quicker if waste is sorted into groups, if a mixed bag of waste is taken to a site the staff will open it to further sort and recycle what’s inside. By doing this the recycling centres in Nottinghamshire are able to recycle over 80% of the waste they handle.
