- Make a booking
-
To use the Boston Household Waste Recycling Centre, you must book a slot. This:
- reduces queues and waiting times for visitors
- reduces traffic congestion around each site
- helps to manage visitor numbers and allow for on-site social distancing
If you do not book or you break the site rules, we will not let you unload your waste.
