Sheffield’s Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs), are open over the Easter Bank Holiday with extended opening hours and the temporary provision of an additional site. This is great news considering the huge queues on Blackstock Road. This extension will apply to both Blackstock Road and Beighton road sites in Heeley. Huge numbers of residents have visited the sites throughout the pandemic and this is ongoing.

To help increase availability over the Easter Bank Holiday all five sites across Sheffield will open at 9.30am, with some closing as late as 8pm. In addition, on Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th April only, a temporary HWRC will be operating at Tinsley for certain types of waste.
