Visiting Hazel Court
Hazel Court Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC) is open and operating in line with current government guidance.
When visiting:
- if you need assistance, please ask a member of staff
- staff will be able to help carry heavy items but will not be able to unload items from inside of a vehicle
- please sort your waste before going to the HWRC to reduce the time spent on site
We continue to be busy so please consider whether your journey is necessary before setting out. You may wish to visit the site at quieter times, after 4.00pm Monday to Saturday.
