Bin collections
Christmas collection day changes
During the two week Christmas break, bin collections will change. You can find out more information below:
Fortnightly bin collections:
- If your bin was scheduled to be collected on Wednesday 25 December, please present your bin on Wednesday 8 January.
- If your bin was scheduled to be collected on Thursday 26 December, please present your bin on Thursday 9 January.
- If your bin was scheduled to be collected on Wednesday 1 January, please present your bin on Wednesday 15 January.
General information
Collections return to normal from Thursday 2 January.
On the next collection after Christmas we will accept:
- As a result of delayed collections, households will be allowed to present any excess waste or recycling as bagged ‘side-waste’ alongside their wheelie bin when usual collections are resumed.
- Please present additional recycling material in card boxes or clear bags on the scheduled day.
Please note: Residents are reminded that many Christmas related products can be recycled - most cards are paper based and can be recycled in the blue wheeled bins (no glitter please) along with cardboard boxes. But due to the make-up of wrapping paper and the amount of sticky tape and embellishments that cause problems at recycling plants, residents are asked to dispose of wrapping paper in their grey bin.
