Recycling
Obviously the amount that we all recycle has a significant effect on the life of the tip. The Vale Douzaine is keen to encourage recycling where possible. Full details of all of the island’s recycling initiatives, visit the States of Guernsey website by clicking here
Recycling Sites in the Parish
There are numerous recycling sites in the Parish, below is a list of the main sites:-

Refuse Collections
Arrangements are made for the regular collection of refuse throughout the Parish on a weekly basis. Collection days vary according to area, details of which can be obtained from the Douzaine Room, (244155). The cost of collection and disposal is levied from the ratepayers as REFUSE RATE, this is approved at the Parish Meeting. To find out when your dustbin is collected, click here
Householders are limited to TWO bins or TWO sacks. Wheelie bins are becoming more popular, but only TWO bin sacks are allowed in each wheelie bin.
