Reuse and Recycling Centres (RRCs)
Each Reuse and Recycling Centre (RRC) has different restrictions on what can be recycled. Visit the Recycling Centres page and select an RRC for more information.
This service is for the use of personal household waste, therefore commercial, trade or industrial waste is not accepted. Visit the NLWA website for a full list of what can and cannot be recycled.
Each RRC has its own operating hours. Visit the Recycling Centres page and select an RRC for more information.
To ensure smooth unloading of your rubbish and recycling, we request that you allow ample time before our site closes. Please arrive no later than 15 minutes before closing time to ensure you have the best chance of being granted access. You can find the full conditions of entry here.
You do not need to book in advance if you want to visit the RRCs by car, bicycle or on foot.
If you are coming in a van, trailer or stripped vehicle, you need to book in advance using the van booking system. This includes any vehicle without seats fitted in the back including minibuses with seats removed and crew cab type (pick-up) vehicles.
If you are coming in a van, trailer or stripped vehicle, the maximum number of yearly visits allowed is 6.
You may book multiple visits in one day but note that each visit will count towards your yearly 6 visit maximum.
