Hempsted Household Recycling Centre to close later than planned for major improvements
Published
Hempsted Household Recycling Centre (HRC) will need to close later than expected next year for essential repairs and improvements.
The original plan was to close in early January 2026 and reopen by Easter, but after further assessments, the timeline is not possible, as the centre is on an old landfill site and more groundwork is needed.
The improvements will make the centre safer, more sustainable, and easier to use. Updates will be provided once final dates have been confirmed.
