Household waste disposal sites
You can take your household rubbish or recycling to a
household waste recycling centre, (HWRC). They are open seven
days a week from 8am-8pm March to October (British Summer Time) and
8am-6pm beginning November to end of February (Greenwich Mean Time)
every day except Christmas Day and New Years Day.
In recognition of users’ views and the trend towards the
increased height of vehicles, such as people carriers, becoming
more common as family cars the height barriers, (which were
set at a height of 5’9” (175cm) in order to deter traders from
abusing the sites), have now been raised to 6'1"
(185.5cm).
There are three within the borough and they are operated by the
Greater Manchester Waste Disposal Authority, (GMWDA).
The sites are located at:
