Do you need to take your waste to a CRC?
- Use the ßÙßÇÂþ» Recycles search tool to find out the best options with what to do with your waste. You may be able to dispose of some items at home or at locations nearer to where you live.
- If you think your items might be useful to someone else, consider taking them to a charity shop, selling them or giving them away for free online.
- If you are bringing a black bag to a CRC, please make sure that you remove any waste that can be recycled from the bag first. You can find out what can be recycled where you live using the ßÙßÇÂþ» Recycles search tool. If you have space at home, please dispose of black bags in your household rubbish bin.
- Find out how to reduce, reuse, recycle.
Before you visit

- You must be a ßÙßÇÂþ» resident (non-ßÙßÇÂþ» residents can visit some, but not all, CRCs). See who can use a CRC.
- If you are using a van, pickup or trailer, you need a van permit. See using a van at CRCs.
- If you are on foot – check that your CRC admits pedestrians. Find your CRC at the bottom of this page.
