West Kirby waste recycling centre is switching to shorter winter opening hours from Saturday 1 October.
The site, on Greenbank Road, will be open from 8am until 5pm – changing from the summer hours of 8am to 8pm.
The site accepts a range of household materials for recycling, from batteries, cans and cardboard, through to garden clippings, glass bottles, wood, and white goods. They also accept lesser known items such as food and drink cartons, clothes, hard plastics and electrical items.
Councillor Tony Concepcion, Chairperson of MRWA, said: “We shorten the hours over the winter to coincide with the darker nights over the forthcoming months.
“Merseyside householders can use the Centres to recycle a host of items – from cans, car batteries and cardboard to garden waste, large plastics, scrap metal, textiles and timber, and more.”
The 13 other waste recycling sites across Merseyside – including Bidston and Clatterbridge in Wirral – have also switched to shorter opening hours.
