REFUSE COLLECTIONS AND RECYCLING
Herefordshire Council has changed refuse collection from November 2014 to alternate weeks for rubbish and recycling so effectively each type will be collected fortnightly and black wheelie bins will be delivered to those with green recycling bins. You can find more information here.
Refuse collection day may have changed – much of Kingsland is now on a Wednesday.
You can find out your collection days and get other refuse collection queries answered here
There are now very limited domestic recycling facilities in the Coronation Hall’s car-park.
These are capable of accepting only:
- Clothing and Shoes
- Books and Music (CD’s etc.)
Leominster provides the nearest Household Recycling Centre – see details here
