MAKE YOUR GREEN HOLME VALLEY A GREENERPLACE

REDUCE. REUSE. RECYCLE! YOUR WASTES

LOCAL RECYCLING DIRECTORY

1 RECYCLING IN THE HOLME VALLEY Where can I recycle my rubbish? There are many opportunities for Holme Valley residents to recycle their wastes and rubbish. Council run a fortnightly collection service for each household, providing a large Green Bin to collect dry recyclables. (See last page for what can and cannot be put in this bin)

In addition there are three Kirklees Council Household Waste Recycling Centres [HWRCs] where residents can take their own wastes for recycling: - Emerald Street HWRC, HD1 6BY - Bent Ley Road HWRC, HD9 4AP Upper - Bromley Farm HWRC, HD8 8NN

Also, there are a number of supermarkets and other organisations which are willing to take household wastes for recycling e.g. sites with Bring-Bank containers.

This Directory provides details of what wastes can be recycled where, particularly for those wastes the Council will not accept in their Green Bin collection service.

The Directory also has information on websites where residents can update this information, including updates of this directory at hott.org.uk/hott-recycling/ 2 NOTES ON LOCAL RECYCLING DIRECTORY RECYCLING IN THE Kirklees Council Kirklees Council have three HOUSEHOLD Local residents can bring their WASTE RECYCLING CENTRES [HWRC] wastes to these household waste HWRC Bring Sites located near the Holme Valley accepting recycling centres for the Council to HOLME VALLEY Where are they? wastes for recycling: recycle.
