In good news for those seeking an Easter spring clean, Cornwall Council has confirmed that all their household waste and recycling centres are open as normal over the bank holidays.

However, the Council has also issued a reminder to people to make sure that any items to go to the recycling centres are pre-sorted into wood, plastic, electrical, garden waste, cartons or battery categories in order to help increase rates of recycling.

A spokesperson for Cornwall Council said: "Our Household Waste and Recycling Centres are open as normal over the Easter bank holidays."Please sort your items before you arrive into wood, plastic, electricals, garden waste, cartons or batteries as it helps to increase recycling."

In addition, bin collections are not expected to be affected by Easter bank holidays, with refuse set to be collected as normal.
