Winter hours return for Recycling centres

Thursday, 31 October 2024 10:00

Wiltshire's recycling centres will switch to winter hours from Friday (1st November).

The switch means that the recycling centre in Salisbury, on Churchfield Industrial Estate, will now close on Fridays and Thursdays.

In Amesbury, the opening days will remain the same, with the centre closed on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

Opening hours will also be reduced. Both sites will open at 10 a.m. during the winter instead of 9 a.m. in the summer and close at 4 p.m.

When visiting, we are asked to remember to sort out waste before arriving so that as much as possible can be recycled.

You can find full information about what can be recycled at the centres, along with their opening times, here - https://www.wiltshire.gov.uk/household-recycling-centre-locations
