Can one still go to Recycling centre during lockdown on a trip to the Supermarket? We are accumulating so much just now. TIA xx

No you can't go at the moment. They are closed until after Easter. But next week you will be able to go again. We last went on wednesday, using option 8 in the SMS.

It's a great way to social distance as well. You will probably be the only one there, along with the guy in the shed.

Over In Larnaca we get a lorry come round every Thursday, just leave out your plastics/ glass/ cartboad, etc and they pick it up, the great thing is the amount of household that do it

Normally the green points are a bit busier. Quiet at the moment though. We mainly use them for dumping garden waste. We have been doing a lot of weeding over the last few weeks and if left in piles it becomes a haven for snakes etc.

Even leaving the waste sacks lying around for a couple of days is hazardous enough. A couple of times I have been driving alone in my car and sensed a presence. This can go on for a day or two before a lizard finally reveals itself by scurrying over my foot as I am driving. I have to stop and eject the lizard. I often wonder what they make of their repatriation. It must be quite a shock for a fine upstanding Polemi lizard to find itself in the slums of Geroskipou.*


* this is a joke. Geroskipou is a lovely village. I even saw some lizards relaxing in hammocks there once, smoking pipes. Please don't send me any PMs.

There is more than one.

You can find them all listed here:

It certainly isn't a dump. You will need to separate your green waste from your metal and rubble before you get there.

You saved me a trip to the Recycling centre on Saturday, Dominic. Will need to go mid week now. Thanks. The Centres are excellent. x
