FROM April 1, residents in Conwy County will be able to use recycling centres in Denbighshire.

The change comes after a joint contract was awarded by both county councils to Bryson Recycling, which already managed the Conwy County Borough Council sites.

As well as the two recycling centres at Mochdre and Abergele, and the monthly mobile service which visits Llangernyw, Llanrwst and Cerrigydrudion, residents now have access to three recycling sites in Denbighshire, including Rhyl and Denbigh.

A council spokesperson said: “This arrangement will make it easier for residents who live close to the county border, whose nearest recycling facility might be in Denbighshire.

“Residents will be able to book 6 visits in two months across all the available sites.”

The Council introduced a booking system for their household recycling centres in 2020, to allow them to be reopened safely during the pandemic.

After receiving significant positive feedback from residents, the Council has decided to keep the booking system permanently, as it reduces queues and waiting time for customers and makes the service more efficient.
