Sclattie Household Waste and Recycling Centre
Please note that Sclattie is now able to accept wood for recycling.
Please be aware that no public vehicles (including tipping vehicles or trailers) will get access to the lower level to dispose of any green waste or soil and rubble. This waste will only be accepted on the upper level. It is also recommended that loads be restricted to smaller quantities in manageable sized bags or containers for the unloading into the bays on the upper level.
Go to the Recycling Centre at Grove Nursery, Hazlehead for information about the proposed west of city Recycling Centre.
Please use our online Recycling Facilities search to find the nearest one to you.
