WEST Somerset residents can now take vehicle parts to be recycled at sites in Minehead and Williton.

The new chargeable service is expected to help mainly car, motorcycle and mobile home enthusiasts who do their own repairs and improvements.

The full list of vehicle parts taken and their costs can be found on the Somerset Waste Partnership website.

It is hoped that by making it easier and more convenient to recycle or dispose of vehicle parts, the improved service will also discourage fly-tipping.
