Wrexham

Wrexham County Borough Council (WCBC) provides a weekly kerbside-sort collections service for recycling. This means it collects recyclable materials in separate containers.

It collects:

• food waste every week, from a grey caddy using caddy liners provided by the Council for free; and
   
• dry recycling every week, from either a Trolibocs unit comprising three boxes, or a black box, green box and reusable blue bag, allowing residents to separate their:
   
  • glass bottles and jars,
  • metal cans, tins, aerosols and foil, 
  • plastic bottles, pots, tubs and trays, 
  • cardboard, and
  • paper.

WCBC also collects:

• garden waste every two weeks between March and November (and once a month between December and February), from a green bin, from homes registered for this chargeable service; and
   
• non-recyclable waste every two weeks, from a black or blue bin.

The Council provides a bulky household item collections service for large items. To find out how much this service costs, or to book a collection, residents should visit the Council’s website.

The Council manages three Household Recycling Centres. Residents don't need to book an appointment before they visit a site. 

The Recycling Centre at Wrexham Industrial Estate (also known as Bryn Lane) hosts the Nightingale House Hospice reuse shop. Residents may donate items to the reuse shop at any of the three Recycling Centres in Wrexham.
