Can I recycle?
Nails, screws and bolts are not collected as part of you recycling collection.
Nails screws and bolts can be taken to one of our Household Waste and Recycling Centres to be recycled.
Which container?
If you aren't able to take them to one of our HWRCs, nails, screws and bolts can go in your rubbish bin. If the new service has started in your area, this will be your new wheelie bin or protective sack. Please wrap these items before placing in your bin to avoid injuries during collection.
When is my collection day?
