Proposal to revise the use of our household waste recycling centres.

Proposals to revise the use of our household waste recycling centres will be considered by councillors next week.

Under the new plans, the centres use would be restricted to North Yorkshire residents.

Owners of commercial-like vehicles would also be allowed up to 12 free visits a year to dispose of their own household waste.

If introduced, it is estimated to generate savings of up to £405,000 per year and will improve access due to fewer visitors from outside of the county.
