Nottinghamshire Recycling Centres operated by Veolia (Nottinghamshire County Council’s waste contractors) are now back open as usual for the rest of the summer.
The centres, including at Mansfield, Warsop, Kirkby, Bilsthorpe and Newark, are now open daily, from 8am to 8pm, until Wednesday, 30th September. Social distancing is in place.
Nottinghamshire county councillor Phil Rostance, vice-chair of the Communities and Place Committee, said: “We’re delighted that we are now in a position to extend the opening hours across all 12 of our recycling centres in Nottinghamshire.
“With the current social distancing restrictions in place we are seeing queues at some sites, especially Mansfield and West Bridgford.
“We hope that by extending the opening hours residents will choose to visit a site during the evening which tends to be a quieter time or ask that they consider using a different site to help ease congestion at busier locations and avoid queues.
“Residents can visit any recycling centre within the county as long as they have registered their vehicle(s) via the county council’s website.”
