Kenilworth's recycling centre will close for two hours on Saturday (May 6) to allow staff to watch the coronation.

King Charles III will be crowned, alongside Camilla, the Queen Consort, on Saturday.

And while Cherry Orchard will be open for most of the day, it will shut between 10.45am and 12.45pm during the broadcast.

All nine Warwickshire sites will be closed and there will be no appointments published for household waste for those two hours and the sites will also be closed to the deposit of trade and commercial waste for that period.

With higher levels of waste anticipated with street parties and barbecues taking place across the county, Cherry Orchard will also be open on Monday, May 8 between 9.30am and 3.15pm.

Booking is required for a visit to a Warwickshire recycling centre and appointments can be booked via a simple online form here.

Mark Ryder. strategic director for communities at Warwickshire County Council Said: said: "It's great that our hardworking household waste recycling centre staff are making the service available during the King's coronation weekend which, with a huge number of events and street parties planned, is likely to be in high demand.

"I would like encourage residents to continue using our booking system as this prevents the queues that used to be lengthy and commonplace before this system was introduced three years ago.

"We receive regular feedback from customers telling us that their experience at the recycling centre was much better than it used to be because booking means that there is more space to move around and no-one is irritable having spent an hour in a queue. Booking is easy via the web and appointments can be made on the day, up to minutes before arrival, where there is capacity.

"I would also thank our visitors for recycling and composting as much as they can. Our sites have a varied array of recycling opportunities and a trip to the recycling centre is much smoother when waste is segregated in advance of bringing it on site. Recycling helps the environment and reduces our impact on climate change and saves us all money."
