If you’re due a wheelie bin collection TODAY or FRIDAY, please put BOTH your green and grey bins out for collection.
Bin collections and street cleansing services resumed on Tuesday but it’s looking increasingly likely that strike action will start again from Tuesday 6 September.
Because of this, we are making changes to bin collection schedules this week:
If you are due a bin collection on Thursday 1 September or Friday 2 September, you should put out both your green AND grey wheelie bins, and any bagged extra waste. Please put them out by 6am on your normal collection day and we will aim to empty them BOTH.
There may be some delays and they may not be collected on the same day as each other, so please leave them out until the end of the day on Monday (5 September).
If you are due a food waste collection, you should put this out as usual, by 6am.
Garden waste collections will be suspended on Thursday 1 September and Friday 2 September. We’re very sorry for this and will be in touch with details of how we’ll compensate you for any recently missed collections.
The glass collection service remains suspended. We’ll provide an update when this is due to restart.
Red box and gull proof sack collections will continue as normal this week.
We are collecting recycling and non-recyclable waste separately. Unfortunately, in some cases recycling bins will have too much non-recyclable waste in them. This means we will not be able to recycle those bins and they will be collected alongside grey wheelie bins. We will be recycling as much as we can.
We are working hard to catch up on collections after the strike action. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
Please let your neighbours, family and friends who might not have heard about the latest guidance know.
