Household Recycling Centres

Household Recycling Centres provide the residents of the city the opportunity to recycle or dispose of larger household items and contribute towards a better environment for us all. Recycling enables us to save energy, reduce pollution and conserve natural resources for our future generations.

Only household waste is accepted at these sites. The centres cannot be used to dispose of commercial waste.

Beat the queues at Civic Amenity Sites

You can beat the queues at the Civic Amenity sites by visiting the centres during the week. We urge residents to make optimum use of these sites for recycling household waste and to sort out their recyclable materials prior to arrival in order to make your visit quicker.

Recyclers - Well done for your contribution. Keep it up!

Non- recyclers - It's time to make a difference and act positively. Start recycling and saving our natural resources. Find out how easy it is on your next visit to your Community Recycling Centre. Our staff are on hand to provide helpful advice.
