Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC) booking system – coming soon

We are introducing a booking system to use the four Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs). Residents will need to book a time to access the centres. 

The booking system will help:

  • Ensure the sites are for Central Bedfordshire residents only 
  • Reduce queues and waiting times
  • Provide staff assistance on-site with heavy or difficult-to-move items
  • Boost recycling efforts, with staff available to help customers reuse and recycle more.
  • Control commercial waste disposal

More details about how to book and the start date will be announced soon.
