This is one of Greater Manchester's 'super centres' for recycling and boy are they right…read more Although tucked away down a narrowish lane off Sinderland Road, this place is massive but has a convenient layout - the access route encircles the site with containers both in the centre and larger skips set lower down for larger waste materials. Working in the waste industry, it's always a pleasant feeling seeing public sites which are tidy, convenient and most importantly safe to use. The staff are very approachable. You can bring pretty much anything here as long as it's from a domestic source (no commercial waste is allowed). If you have any electrical items or furniture that can be reused there are separate containers for these. Tip: If you've not been here before and have a SatNav, use it - the sign directing you from the main road isn't that obvious. Tip: It's open all year (except Christmas Day and New Years Day).

Spending a weekend at the tip doesn't sound like a fun idea. The one near me is small and dreary…read more After driving through lots of new housing areas we turn off for the recycling centre. Even upon arrival, this area looks smart and it was busy and there were three men in hi-vis directing people on which bin to put their goods in. There are about 15 cages and some cages are locked and you leave the goods outside. A great place to environmentally and safely discard and recycle your household waste.

A review of a printer and copier place? Sounds dull but this is such a great little place I had to…read moremention it. We use this printer company at my place of work and the attitude we encounter every single time is so refreshing - everyone is cheerful and eager to help if possible and if you've missed any detail from your order they'll be straight on the phone to check everything and make sure you get what you need. The efficiency is quite remarkable here. I've known them turn round full colour printing jobs in a few hours and it's become an in-house joke where I work where we almost have a sweepstake on how soon they'll get back to us. We use recycled paper and that's easily done at Colourcopy so there's an environmentally friendly side to them too. Finally the quality of the job they do is first class. Our printing requirements are always done to the highest quality and everything they've done for us has been spot on.

I can't rate colour copy particuarly well because I only nipped in once to get my passport…read morephotocopied, which only cost 10p and the guy seemed very friendly. It looked like they had a decent amount of kit in there and offer large banner printing etc and the prices seem reasonable. As a web designer I'm not generally fussed with printed material so on the occasions I need something printing it's good to know there is a reliable business around the corner.

What sort of weird person gives a four star rating to a recycling centre, one would almost think I…read morespend my time hanging around the place soaking up the atmosphere and appreciating the scenery and ambience. Truth be known, I am not a regular visitor but when there is a need to have a clear out at home I feel quite happy taking my junk here. It's nice and clearly set out and the staff seem happy to advise. Best of all it makes me feel I'm doing something good for my self, my city and the universe.

This company is shockingly bad. To explain, I booked a collection online and payed £20 for them to…read morecome collect a fridge and freezer, it has been 2 days since I payed them and I never received an email with a collection date. So I called them to check if everything is alright and they told me I will receive an email "as soon as they know a collection date". I asked when will that be (in the next week, two weeks, month...) and they again said "as soon as we know". So I told them I want my money back and that I will find another company: the guy on the phone told me NO! You can't have your money back and hung up on me!
