Bin deliveries 

Due to unforeseen issues, it might take slightly longer than our usual 10 working day timeframe for you to receive your new bin. Please be assured that we are working hard to resolve this and will ensure all overdue bins are delivered as soon as possible. 

You can apply for an additional houshold waste bin (pink lid bin) if your household meets one or both of the criteria below:

  • you have five or more permanent residents, including children living at your address
  • a permanent resident has a medical condition which means additional non-recyclable waste is produced

How to apply

If you don't already have an additional household waste bin, you should complete the online application form. There is no charge for an additional bin if there is a permanent resident in the household that produces medical waste from their condition.

Bin type 5-6 residents 7 or more residents
