All change at the recycling centre

From Councillor Eddy Poll, Executive Councillor for Commercial and Environmental Management. Lincolnshire County Council

From Monday 8 March, the HWRCs across the county will change – with residents being able to take recycling, garden waste and general waste on any opening day. In order to manage the number of people on site and to prevent queues, the Click and Tip booking system will remain in place. Therefore, residents will still need to visit  www.lincolnshire.gov.uk/clickandtip or call 01522 782070 to book their time slot.

Residents can bring, on any day:

Scrap metal
Cardboard
Paper
Electricals (such as washing machines and TVs)
Batteries
Household chemicals
Mineral and cooking oil
Gas cylinders
Clothing
Garden waste
Wood
Glass
Black-bagged general waste, plastic and mattresses
Soil and hardcore (limited to one dustbin full per vehicle per day)
Plasterboard (limited to one dustbin full per vehicle per day)
Bulky waste, such as carpets and sofas

We also now have the permit scheme for Vans and larger trailers to access the sites, which can be accessed via www.lincolnshire.gov.uk/clickandtip.

Officers and contractors have been working hard behind the scenes to make sure the system can operate safely with all waste types being brought on the same day. I feel that this, together with the progress being made by the vaccination programme, means that we are now in a place that from 8 March, residents will be able to bring their recycling, garden waste and general waste on any day we are open.
