RECYCLING
Under Construction please check for Llantrisant Fawr local accuracy
Red, Purple and Food waste bags can be found locally at the Community Hub in Maryport St, Usk, the Sessions House, Usk and the Co-op in Usk (normally in a brown box outside the entrance to the shop)
Yellow Hygiene Waste bags are available on request from Monmouthshire County Council.
Monmouthshire is also conducting a trial of glass recycling in some areas. For those taking part in the trial Glass is placed in a green box instead of the the purple recycling bag.
