Don’t get caught out by changes to waste and recycling collections over the Christmas holiday period.
See the handy table below to work out when’s best to put the bins out. Make sure your waste and recycling is ready for collection by 7am on the scheduled collection day. If your rubbish/recycling isn’t collected when it should be, contact the council after 3pm on the collection day. You can report a missed collection using this link.
The council will also collect real Christmas trees for recycling from 6 to 20 January. Please remove decorations from your tree and leave it out for collection on your recycling day.
