The Household Waste Recycling Centres (tips) in Huyton and Kirkby are set to switch to their shorter winter opening hours from Wednesday 1 October.
The recycling centres at Wilson Road, Huyton and Depot Road, Kirkby will open from 8am to 5pm during the winter months (changing from the summer hours of 8am to 8pm). They are operated by Veolia on behalf of Merseyside Recycling and Waste Authority (MRWA).
All Recycling Centres also have ‘disposable vapes’ bins to help provide safe disposal and recycling routes for the millions of vapes currently thrown away across the country.
Householders can check www.recycleright.org.uk for details of what can be recycled at their local site.
The centres provide a popular service for residents and can become extremely busy at peak times so visits should be planned carefully.
There is a system in place for those who wish to visit in a van or with a large trailer. Bookings can be made at www.merseysidewda.gov.uk.
