Mini recycling centres
What you can recycle at our mini recycling centres and where they are.
Due to roadworks, we have had to close the banks on Theale High Street.
We have mini recycling centres at:
We regularly empty the recycling banks at these centres. If the recycling bank you need is full when you visit, please do not leave your recycling on the floor as this is fly tipping. Instead, either take your recycling home and try again when you are next passing or try a different centre. You can report full recycling banks using our online query form.
