Recycling at Landmann Way Centre

Lots of things can be recycled at the Re-use and recycling centre at Landmann Way in New Cross, but at the moment because of Covid you need to pre-book a slot and you cannot bring mixed loads. Each booking made must be for one type of disposal (green waste, mixed recyclables or textiles) so consider sharing drop-offs with neighbours. The centre is now a co-mingle site. All recyclables go in one container and will be separated off site.
