Tips for visiting the recycling centres
Sort your recycling before leaving
Before setting off to your local recycling centre, please sort out the different materials, so you have them ready to deposit straight into the correct bays. This is one of the biggest ways you can help us out.
If you arrive with your recycling unsorted, you will be on the site for much longer as this will really slow your visit down.
Always bring ID with you
Our recycling centres are only to be used by Wrexham residents, so upon arrival at the sites you’re asked to show us some ID so we can make sure you are local.
Remember to make sure you bring some with you, and having it ready for us will to check will also help to speed things up.
No recyclables in the general waste skip
If you’re bringing any black bags to the recycling centres, please make sure any plastic bottles, cans etc. mistakenly placed inside have been removed and placed in your kerbside recycling, or they can be recycled in the respective recycling banks at the recycling centre.
Anything for reuse?
You can donate to the re-use shop at any of the three recycling centres; just speak to one of the attendants who’ll point you in the right direction.
Pick up replacement recycling containers
Did you know you can order recycling equipment through our online form and then collect it at your chosen recycling centre?
Once you have submitted the order you’ll be provided with a reference number and confirmation email, which you’ll need to collect the containers.
You will also need to show some ID that matches the information provided on your form.
You get 5 days to collect the items from the date ordered.
If you wish to order equipment for delivery or pay for a new garden waste or general waste bin, please use this form instead.
You can find out more about visiting the recycling centres on our website.
