Wheeled bin collection days

Household waste and recycling changes

Food waste should be put in your green/grey wheeled bin instead of your brown bin. Brown bins are now for garden waste only – check what goes in your bins.

We regret we will be unable to collect any brown bins from Monday 3 April to Friday 14 April. This is due to a shortage of staff. We apologise for any inconvenience.

We are working hard to restore staff levels so we can collect all bins on the days expected. If all the brown bins in your street are not collected on your usual day in your scheduled week, we will return for them your next scheduled 'Week 1' or 'Week 2' collection day unless we give notice of a planned change.

Normal collections and public holidays

Household waste and recycling blue bins and green/grey bins are collected once a week. Brown bins are collected every 2 weeks. Use our A to Z of recyclable waste to check what should go in each bin.

Normal collection days

Check your normal collection day and brown bin collection week by selecting the first letter of your street name, below. For brown bin collections, your street will either be a 'Week 1' or 'Week 2' street.
