Old Swan Recycling Centre Review
★★★★★
The Old Swan site is very easy to find, located right next to the Arriva Green Lane Bus Depot. You enter the yard off Cheadle Avenue.
The layout is unique as you drive into the building:
- Straight ahead: Large appliances, paper, and card.
- On the left: Hard plastics, scrap metal, and general household waste.
- Near the exit: Textiles, cooking oil, and the reuse shop.
Local Tip: Because a lot of the skips are inside the building, it's a great site to use if the weather is bad! Like other local sites, standard cars don't usually need a booking.
