Woking Community Recycling Centre

Overview

Woking Community Recycling Centre, often fondly referred to as Martyrs Lane, is a surprisingly pleasant spot for tackling that endless garden waste or decluttering at home. It's not your typical rubbish dump; the cheerful staff and well-organised layout make the whole experience a doddle. I can't believe I'm saying this, but it's actually quite enjoyable to recycle here! The place has a friendly atmosphere, and you'll often find parents chatting while they unload their cars.

The staff are genuinely helpful and always ready with a smile, guiding you to the right bins for your recycling. And if you're lucky, you might even spot some hidden treasures in their reuse shop, where you can pick up items that still have a bit of life left in them. It's brilliant for anyone keen to reduce waste.
