Coalville tip will now stay open late during the week

The site is now open for a further two hours on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

The Linden Way site, off Ashby Road, is now open for an extra two hours on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, which means it will now close at 7 pm.   

Councillor Blake Pain, the cabinet member for the environment and the green agenda, said: " We’re pleased that our current staffing levels mean we’re in a position to extend the hours at Coalville for two days for residents to use over the summer period."

The site remains open on Mondays, Saturdays, and Sundays from 9 am – 5 pm.  

Anyone planning a trip to recycle or dispose of rubbish is urged to check before setting off. The latest information about waste and recycling is available on the county council website.
