Christmas and New Year Collection Changes

 

Don’t forget that the recycling and refuse collections will be slightly revised over the festive period.

 

Christmas week, collections are scheduled two days later than usual.

 

The week commencing Monday 1st January, collections will take place 1 day later than normal.  Normal collections resume on Monday 8th January 2018.

 

If you were thinking of using the Council’s bulk collection service, there will be slots available to book until 21st December. The service will then stop for the festive period, resuming on Monday 2nd January.

 

Don’t forget to pay a visit to the Reuse Shop in Briton Ferry Recycling Centre too.

 

Whether on the hunt for a bargain, or intending to have a clear-out after the festive season, the Reuse Shop has lots to offer. The Reuse Shop will be closing at 4:30pm on Saturday 23rd December and will reopen on Wednesday 3rd January at 9.30am.

 

We are unable to recycle Christmas wrapping paper, due to the

dyes and glitter used in its production. Please dispose of wrapping paper in your black bag waste.

 

Keep Recycling Over Christmas and the New Year!

 

In just a few festive days, an awful lot of waste is generated. Please don’t throw it all in your black bags! In Neath Port Talbot, there is so much of your festive waste that can be recycled:

 

  • Greetings cards can go in with other cardboard recycling and envelopes with paper recycling.

 

  • Real Christmas trees can be broken up and recycled at the kerbside or alternatively can be taken to one of the Council’s recycling centres at Briton Ferry, Rhyd y Fro or Cymmer, which are open every day except Christmas Day.

 

  • Cardboard packaging can also be recycled, though plastic ties should be removed and recycled separately.

 

  • Use the kitchen caddy for all food waste– everything from turkey to tea bags and left over sprouts can be recycled.

 

  • Foil can be recycled too with metal recycling such as tins and cans.

Newidiadau i gasgliadau dros gyfnod y Nadolig a’r Flwyddyn Newydd

 

Cofiwch y bydd newidiadau mân i gasgliadau ailgylchu a sbwriel dros gyfnod yr ŵyl.

 

Yn ystod wythnos y Nadolig, bydd casgliadau’n cael eu gwneud ddau ddiwrnod yn hwyrach nag arfer.

 

Yn ystod yr wythnos sy’n dechrau ddydd Llun 1 Ionawr, caiff casgliadau eu gwneud ddiwrnod yn hwyrach nag arfer. Bydd y casgliadau arferol yn ailgychwyn ddydd Llun 8 Ionawr 2018.

 

Os oeddech yn ystyried defnyddio gwasanaeth casgliadau swmpus y cyngor, gallwch gadw lle tan 21 Rhagfyr. Ni fydd y gwasanaeth ar gael dros gyfnod yr ŵyl, ond bydd yn ailgychwyn ddydd Llun 2 Ionawr.

 

Cofiwch fynd i’r Siop Ailddefnyddio yng Nghanolfan Ailgylchu Llansawel hefyd.

 

Os ydych yn chwilio am fargen neu’n bwriadu glanhau ar ôl y Nadolig, mae gan y Siop Ailddefnyddio ddigon i’w gynnig. Bydd y Siop Ailddefnyddio’n cau am 4.30pm ddydd Sadwrn 23 Rhagfyr a bydd yn ailagor ddydd Mercher 3 Ionawr am 9.30am.

 

Nid oes modd i ni ailgylchu papur lapio Nadolig oherwydd y lliwiau a’r pefr a ddefnyddir wrth ei gynhyrchu. Rhowch bapur lapio yn eich sach ddu.

 

Parhewch i ailgylchu dros y Nadolig a’r Flwyddyn Newydd!

 

Mewn ychydig ddiwrnodau’n unig dros gyfnod yr ŵyl mae llawer o wastraff yn cael ei greu. Peidiwch â rhoi pob dim yn eich sachau du! Yng Nghastell-nedd Port Talbot gallwch ailgylchu llawer o’ch gwastraff Nadolig:

 

  • Gall cardiau cyfarch fynd i’r sach ailgylchu papur gyda’r ailgylchu cardbord a’r amlenni.

 

  • Gellir torri coed Nadolig go iawn a’u hailgylchu wrth ymyl y ffordd neu gallwch fynd â hwy i un o ganolfannau ailgylchu’r cyngor yn Llansawel, Rhyd-y-fro neu’r Cymer, sydd ar agor bob dydd ac eithrio Dydd Nadolig.

 

  • Gellir hefyd ailgylchu pecynnu cardbord, er y dylech dynnu’r clymau plastig a’u hailgylchu ar wahân.

 

  • Defnyddiwch y blwch cegin i ailgylchu gwastraff bwyd – gallwch ailgylchu popeth o dwrci i gydynnau te ac ysgewyll.

 

  • Gellir ailgylchu ffoil hefyd gyda’r ailgylchu metel megis tiniau a chaniau.
