LOCATION |
The domestic waste collections now run on a 2-weekly cycle in Craster, with recyclable material collected one week and other material the following week. The normal collection day is Thursday, although this will change in the weeks either preceding or following a Bank Holiday. To confuse matters for visitors to the village, the recyclable material has to be put into the blue bin, with the other material going into the green bin. It should be particularly noted that glass bottles should not be put into the blue bin. There are recycling sites in The Quarry Car Park at Craster and at the North End of Embleton village where recycling facilities for glass bottles and jars are provided. If you need information about how to dispose of waste that is not on this list or further information about any of Northumberland County Council's recycling services, then contact the customer services team on 0845 600 6400 or log on to www.northumberland.gov.uk.
