Recycling centres
Summary
There are many recycling centres around the district to help you reuse and recycle even more of your waste. Everything that we put in the rubbish bin costs us money, so it makes sense to recycle as much as possible.
The table below lists South Norfolk recycling centres that you can take different materials to for reuse and recycling, and underneath it you can find out the locations of the Norfolk County Council Household Waste Recycling Centres.
There are many more materials that can be recycled at these sites, and you may even pick up a bargain at one of the reuse centres.
