Easter Monday tip reminder

Orkney Islands Council has issued a reminder that Cursiter Household Waste and Recycling Centre (HWRC) will be closed this coming Monday (5 April), for the Easter Monday public holiday.

Residents should also note that other HWRCs will also be closed on Easter Monday, as they do not usually open on a Monday.

The Council is also reminding members of the public who may be spring cleaning this Easter break to check opening days and times, and materials accepted, at each of the Council’s HWRCs on the Council website before visiting.

Households are reminded that Hope and Cursiter HWRCs are accepting recycling and waste electrical equipment only (no ‘black bag’ waste). Hatston and Garson are not accepting plastic bottles at this time. Full details are on the Council website.
