In the latest update from Conwy County Borough Council, there will be changes to the play provision and arrangements for the disposal of household waste and the collection of refuse. Restrictions will be placed on households reporting Covid-19 symptoms.

For public safety play areas across the county will be closed immediately. Parks will remain open for the time being but the council continues to remind everyone to be responsible and keep to social distancing guidelines.

To keep the refuse and recycling collections going, help is needed to protect those working on the service.

If your household is self-isolating because someone has viral symptoms, please do not put your recycling out for collection for 14 days. After 14 days, you can put out your recycling and we will take any extra that doesn’t fit in your trolibocs.

Don’t forget to wash your hands before you put out your bin and recycling containers, and again as soon as you bring them back in.

Crest Cooperative will not be collecting pink or purple recycling bags at the moment and any new bookings for bulky waste will not be undertaken due to staff shortages at Crest.

Conwy Recycling Centres at Abergele and Mochdre are closed until further notice, in line with Government guidance. Also, the Saturday mobile recycling centres will not be running until further notice, in line with Government guidance.
