Household Waste and Recycling Centres
There are four Household Waste and Recycling Centres in the city where you can deposit a wide variety of materials for recycling. See the table below for locations and further information about the collection facilities available at each site.
Please note that the Recycling Centres are for household waste only. It is illegal for business and commercial waste to be disposed of at the centres, and staff will turn away any commercial vehicles attempting to enter the sites.
