We’re expecting heavy traffic around the recycling centre this bank holiday weekend due to road works and temporary four-way lights at Arkwright St/Lansdowne Rd. ♻
To make your visit easier:
• Visit before 10am or after 4pm
• Try another GM recycling centre

Many of worked with Cllr David Lancaster MBE for many years. He was a well-respected member of our Waste and Recycling Committee and we are all very saddened to hear that he has passed away. Our thoughts are with his family, friends and colleagues.

To celebrate the launch of Wicked: For Good, we spoke with a familiar face to talk about recycling unwanted clothing, since we know it can be quite confusifying!
Watch until the end..it’s worth the wait.🧙‍♀️

@CllrWalters Because bottle tops are so small, if they're loose, and not attached to the bottle, they'll fall off during the recycling process where they contaminate the glass and won’t be recycled. We'd love to have you along to our tour to show you how it works in person! (2 of 2)

[Recycle for Greater Manchester @recycle4gm]

@CllrWalters Hello Cllr Walters. Thanks for highlighting this issue. If residents recycle bottle tops that are attached, the entire item will be recycled. (1 of 2)

@PeteLiggins @recycleforbury Hi Pete! Yes, the plastic tray can go in your blue bin 👍 Just remove the film lid and pop that in general waste. Labels aren’t always local, but you’re fine to recycle the tray!

[Recycle for Bury @recycleforbury]
