Recycling banks

We have several recycling banks across Barnsley where you can recycle glass and textiles. We don't have recycling banks for paper, as you can put this in your blue bin to be recycled.

Most recycling bank sites are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. If the site is in a residential area, please be mindful of residents and use them between 8am and 10pm.

You can use the recycling banks for as many items as you want, as long as there's enough room in the containers. Please don't place extra bags of recyclable material at the side of them, as this will make the site look untidy and can cause an obstruction.

You should take away any boxes or carrier bags you use to carry your recyclable materials to the banks. If there's a bin for these on site, please use it.
