Household Hazardous Waste Days – Caister Recycling Centre
24 and 25 October 2025
Published: 25 September 2025
Norfolk County Council Waste Recycling Centres are again running hazardous material collection days.
Caister’s will be held on Friday 24th & Saturday 25th of October 2025.
These specified days throughout the year are the only times that Norfolk’s recycling centres accept hazardous materials, including paint.
As with the spring events, the Council will use the recycling centres’ booking system to manage demand and ensure smooth operations. A separate booking calendar will be available for household hazardous waste days, and regular household waste bookings will be suspended at hosting centres during these events. Bookings can be made online or by phone and will be open a week before each event.
The last round of household hazardous waste days, held in spring 2025, saw:
- 296,166 kg of hazardous materials safely disposed
- 6,795 bookings completed
- An average of 47.13 kg of waste per customer
- Paint as the most commonly received hazardous material
