Recycling banks and centres
Household recycling centres
Visit the Gloucestershire Recycles website to find out about recycling centres in the county.
Recycling banks
To complement recycling collections from home, there are a number of recycling bank locations across Cheltenham for recycling a greater variety of materials.
If a bank is full and needs emptying please let us know on 01242 262626.
There are multiple sites across the town that allow you to recycle your items. If the banks are full please do not leave any waste, instead we ask that you use one of the other sites available or alternatively use the kerbside collection service where possible.
