Aberdeenshire seasonal garden waste points to operate from April 2 to October 29

Aberdeenshire Council seasonal garden waste points will operate on a Saturday from April 2nd till October 29th this year.

While there is no need to book, traffic management will apply at all sites and visitors are being advised to stay in their vehicle until called forward.

These sites are only to be used for grass clippings and small trimmings - not for larger trees and bushes which take up too much space and which should be taken to one of our household recycling centres.

Visitors should not arrive before the opening times to enable council operatives to have traffic management measures in place.

The seasonal garden waste recycling points operate on Saturdays at:

• Aboyne: Station Square car park - 12noon - 3pm
• Ballater: Roads Depot, South Deeside Road - 8am to 11am
• Balmedie: Leisure Centre car park, Eigie Road - 1pm to 4pm
