New live webcams have been installed at tips in Hertfordshire to help you beat the queue.
Residents can now see a live feed from their local household waste recycling centre by checking the internet to see how busy it is before making a trip to the tip.
Terry Hone, Hertfordshire County Council’s executive member for community safety and waste, said: “Our recycling centres are visited almost 2.5 million times every year and we know that queues can sometimes be a problem. The cameras will help residents decide when or when not to visit the tip.”
Visit www.hertfordshire.gov.uk/hwrc to see if your local site is busy before you leave the house.
You can also find out about opening hours at all the household waste recycling centres across the county and get information about what items can be recycled on the kerbside, saving you the trip.
The majority of webcams are now live.
