A RANGE of extra recycling facilities will be on offer at a new rubbish disposal site in Hereford.

The new site at the Rotherwas Industrial Estate in Chapel Road will replace the existing household waste facilities in Fir Tree Lane.

As well as paper and glass recycling facilities and normal waste collection, a skip for soil and rubble will also be available.

"We are very pleased to be opening the new site in conjunction with our contractor," said Andrew Tector, head of environmental health and trading standards.

Convenient

"This new site has a better range of convenient recycling facilities, most timely in the light of the current ''Rethink Rubbish'' campaign."

The new site will be open from 8am-6pm, Monday to Sunday all year round.

It will only close on Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year's Day, opening as normal on other Bank Holidays.
