Bins and Recycling
Collection Details
Please place your waste on the edge of your property by 06:00am on the day of collection, ensuring that all your waste is inside the bin. Only waste inside the wheeled bins will be taken. Make sure you do not overfill your wheeled bin. If your bin is too heavy to move, it will not be emptied.
Next collection due: Green bin and Blue bin
Black bin: every other Wednesday (general waste)
Green bin: alternate Wednesdays (garden/green waste)
Blue bin: alternate Wednesdays (recycling)
Bank Holidays
No collections will take place on bank holidays. During all weeks containing a bank holiday, collections will take place one day later.
Assisted Collections
The collection team can come and collect your waste or recycling from its normal storage place, take it to the collection vehicle for emptying and then return the container where appropriate.
Assisted collections are only available for householders that are unable to take their waste out for collection themselves.
This may include:
- People with disabilities
- The infirm or elderly
- The visually impaired
The Council is unable to provide this service where there is a person living in the household that can take the waste out on collection day.
