Chairman of the Council’s Environmental Services Committee, Councillor Brian Hanvey and the Director of Environmental Services, Heather Moore, have welcomed the reopening of Carryduff Household Recycling Centre.

Lisburn & Castlereagh City Council is pleased to announce the reopening of Carryduff Household Recycling Centre recently following substantial works to provide enhanced environmental protection measures.

The Comber Road based facility closed in September 2015 to allow for essential environmental infrastructure works to improve the site drainage and the quality of surface areas.

Speaking about the re-opening of Carryduff Household Recycling Centre, Chairman of the Environmental Services Committee, Councillor Brian Hanvey said: “First and foremost, I would like to sincerely thank the residents that use Carryduff Household Recycling Centre for their patience during the period of closure and apologise for any inconvenience that this may have caused.

“The Council fully appreciates the importance of recycling to the environment and in the community, and by carrying out the site improvements has made every effort to ensure that recycling and general waste services at Carryduff Household Recycling Centre can continue and provide an effective service at an environmentally compliant site,” concluded Councillor Hanvey.

Carryduff Household Recycling Centre is open Monday to Friday from 9.00am – 7.00pm and Saturday from 9.00am to 5.00pm from the 1st April to 30th September. Last entry is 10 minutes before the stated closing time.
