Hertfordshire County Council is urging people to plan ahead before they make a trip to the tip this weekend.
To avoid unnecessary queues, the council says anyone with broken or working electrical items can take them to Wiggenhall Depot car park, Wiggenhall Road on Saturday June 18. Items can then be donated to charity, repaired or recycled.
For recyclable items the council is asking people to use kerbside collection points to ease pressure on landfill sites.
