Spring Vale (Middleton, Rochdale) Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC) Closing for Improvements

The HWRC will CLOSE from Monday 15th February 2010 for two weeks, whilst part of the redevelopment works are carried out. The HWRC will reopen at the end of February 2010.

The improvements will provide a more comprehensive recycling service for local residents – helping to divert more of Greater Manchester’s waste from landfill.

The redevelopment work forms part of the Greater Manchester Waste Disposal Authority’s (GMWDA’s) long-term waste and recycling contract to provide world class waste management facilities across Greater Manchester.

Improvements to this HWRC will reduce waiting times and have the benefit of better signage, traffic management, assistance for users and CCTV with number plate recognition and provide a more comprehensive recycling service for local residents, helping to divert more of Greater Manchester’s waste from landfill. The improved facilities will make it even easier for residents to recycle more of their waste and a wider range of materials, as well as allowing better working conditions for operatives.

Councillor Neil Swannick Chair of GMWDA said: “We are very pleased that redevelopment work will start ahead of schedule and residents will be able to recycle more of their waste at the improved facilities.”
