Recycling centre locations

You can find recycling centres in most villages and towns in Eden. A community group adopts a recycling centre. We pay the community group for the recycling we collect from their centre, in return for keeping the centre clean and tidy. Recycling centres have separate recycling banks for materials such as cans, foil, glass, paper, card, plastics and textiles. You need to take recycling to a centre and place it in the correct recycling bank.
