Sprucing up the garden?

All HWRCs in Hampshire are open every day and accept a wide range of bulky household and garden items for recycling, including grass cuttings and hedge clippings. The majority of sites are open from 8am-7pm, except Hedge End which opens at 9am on Sundays and bank holidays, and Hayling Island which opens at 9am every day.
