Big change in store accessing Laois waste and recycling hub

Laois County Council is introducing significant changes in how the public and waste operators access the Kyletalesha waste and recycling facility. 

The local authority says the road layout and payment arrangements at the landfill waste transfer station and recycling centre will change on September 18, 2023.

Under the changes, the council says all traffic entering the Kyletalesha facility shall proceed directly to the weighbridge. All recycling centre traffic will also have to proceed to the weighbridge.

All payments will be collected at the weighbridge office.

Patrons are advised to follow landfill staff instructions.

Laois County Council operate the sole landfill site for the county at Kyletalesha. The landfill operates under Environmental Protection Agency Waste Licence since May 2000. The landfill site accepts waste at a rate of up to a maximum of 47,100 tonnes per year.

The Civic Amenity Site at the Kyletalesha landfill facility is also directly managed, operated and staffed by Laois County Council.
