Our WASTE AND RECYCLING CENTRES at Waterloo, Winsel, Manorowen, St David's, Hermon and Crane Cross will be temporarily CLOSED from 24th October until 9th November 2020 in line with Welsh Government’s “Fire-break” lockdown. Based on current Welsh Government advice, we are planning on reopening sites on Monday 9th November, when winter opening hours will resume. The booking system will be available to reserve slots from Sunday 8th November. Our HOUSEHOLD WASTE AND RECYCLING COLLECTIONS are currently continuing as normal. You can find out more about collection arrangements for your property by typing your postcode into the Search for Your Bin Day box on our Waste and Recycling page or logging on to your My Account Please help our collection crews by minimising the amount of household waste you create. With pressure on services and Waste and Recycling Centre’s temporarily closed please avoid doing any big clear outs at home or undertaking any DIY or garden projects which are likely to generate large amounts of waste. Please do not burn household waste at home. This creates air pollution that could harm people nearby who may already have breathing difficulties due to COVID-19. There is also the danger that fires could get out of control. Fire services around the country are reporting an increase in callouts due to garden fires. Remember to recycle as much you can by following guidance on our website and by condensing it down as much as possible
