* The Pavilion car park where the service will be re-introduced from next month.
The service was halted at the start of lockdown as the county council said its staff would have been put at risk of continuing with the operation.
For many weeks since local people have had to take their bulk waste to the recycling centre at Ruthin instead, which led to heavy criticism of the council and calls for the service's swift return.
This morning, County Councillor Graham Timms said: "My fellow Llangollen councillor Melvyn Mile and I have been putting continuous pressure on the county recycling service since its withdrawal in late March.
"We wrote to the head of service in Denbighshire yet again on Monday to ask for another urgent review and decision was made yesterday afternoon to re-introduce the service from mid-August.
"We do yet know the exact date as there a few details to work out but people will be notified.
"There will obviously have to be social distancing observed when the service comes back.
"We are very pleased that it is coming back after so long."
