Plas Madoc’s brand new household recycling centre has officially opened its doors to residents in the area following its opening by the Mayor of Wrexham, Cllr Arwel Gwynn Jones.
The purpose built facility has improved recycling facilities and easier access to skips. One significant improvement is that residents no longer have to wait whilst skips are emptied as all HGV’s will be separated from the public using the site.
Residents can recycle newspapers, magazines, plastic and glass bottles, cans, clothing as well as wood, cardboard, rubble, scrap, garden waste, batteries, oil and white goods.
The facility forms part of the new contract which was signed in 2007 and was constructed by Waste Recycling Group (WRG) who will run and maintain the site on behalf of Wrexham County Borough Council.
WRG have already completed the refurbishment of Brymbo’s household recycling centre and next week they will see their final part of the construction contract completed when the new Waste Recycling Facility on Wrexham‘s Industrial Estate is formally opened by the Minister for Environment, Sustainability and Housing, Jane Davidson AM.
David Rees, General Manager for Waste Recycling Group, said: “We’re proud to be playing our part in helping Wrexham people do their bit for the environment by providing them with state of the art recycling facilities that are convenient and easy to use.”
Wrexham Council’s Lead Member for the Environment and Transport, Cllr David Bithell, said: “The opening of this site brings to the area a modern, safe and clean facility for residents in the area. I know it will be well used and the provision of extra recycling facilities will see our rates improve even further.”
The site will be open every day except Christmas Day.
