Permanent anD mobile recycling centresFive permanent recycling centres are available for your use, in locations throughout the city (see below). Here, you can dispose of all recyclable waste, as well as bulky items. The Malley recycling centre also has a section ("espace ressourcerie") that collects and redis-tributes your unwanted household goods. Once a month, a mobile recycling centre will visit your area from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. You can take all your recyclable waste to the mobile centre. Access to the permanent and mobile recycling centres requires a permit, which you can obtain by calling 0800 804 806, visiting the website www.lausanne.ch/dechets, sending your request by post or requesting it at the recycling centre when visiting for the first time.
