Bucks Council's nine household recycling centres will switch to winter opening hours today (Saturday 1 October). The new opening hours will be 9am to 4pm.
The centres will be operating the same days as normal, as only the opening hours are changing, due to the reduced number of visits to the centres after 4pm.
Gareth Williams, Cabinet Member for Environment and Climate Change, said:
"Once again as the evenings get darker and our sites get quieter, we are switching to our usual winter hours.From 1 October, we will be open from 9am to 4pm, continuing to offer a comprehensive service for residents. You don’t need to book a slot to visit the centres, but I recommend that you check our live webcams before setting off to see if the site is busy before you travel.“
The household recycling centre are open on the following days:
- Amersham, Aston Clinton, Beaconsfield, Buckingham, High Wycombe and Langley – open every day.
- Aylesbury (Rabans Lane), Burnham and Chesham – open five days a week, closing on Wednesdays and Thursdays.
Further information, including what waste the centres do and don’t accept, can be found on Buckinghamshire Council’s Household recycling centres webpage.
