Residents won’t need to book from Monday, December 27 – although you will if you’re planning a visit to any other Hampshire waste and recycling centres.
The council said it’s hoped the removal of the booking system will help reduce fly-tipping, which it says has increased in recent years.
It added that over the last three months a third of booked slots at Millbrook weren’t taken up, while others failed to turn up at their pre-booked time, or were turned away because they hadn’t booked.
“This has caused frustration for residents who want to dispose of household waste responsibly,” said the authority.
