Veolia ES Birmingham operates all five of the Household Recycling Centres in the city for the use of Birmingham residents to dispose of their household waste. The Household Recycling Centres take a wide range of items and they’re really useful for waste that can’t be recycled or disposed of via collection services or bring banks.
Please note that the sites do get very busy during summer weekends and bank holidays, so if possible use the sites outside of these times. The sites are open late in the evenings to allow for this. Please ensure that before you visit one of the sites, you have segregated your waste into the various recyclable categories. This will make your visit as speedy as possible and will avoid delays for yourself and others.
