Für mich sind das beides Wertstoffhöfe, oder ist eines die örtliche Sammelstelle? Aber an Containern gibt es keine Infos.

some civic amenity sites do only take bulk material and do not do recycling - maybe that is the difference.

We gottabitofa problem here, because German regulations prohibit disposal of unwanted (but still serviceable) chairs, tables, crockery, records, toys etc. through the British "civic amenity site/centre", which is where we also dispose of household waste. Therefore the concept is not recognised here, but if you can do something with the ideas above, well and good...
