Suspended brown bin garden waste collections

We regret to inform residents that brown bin garden waste collections are suspended with immediate effect until the end of August. If you've already placed your brown bin out for collection, please return it from the kerbside.

To maintain essential waste services, we are prioritising general waste (pink lid bins) throughout the summer. We understand this is frustrating and sincerely apologise for the inconvenience. Please be assured that we are actively recruiting new staff to bolster the service and making changes intended to make it more efficient and effective in the future.

Household Waste Recycling Centres remain open and available for garden waste disposal.

We will resume garden waste collections on Monday 1 September. Should there be any further unforeseen problems, we will update you by Friday 29 August.

We fully understand that the garden waste service is a paid subscription, and we are considering the best way to make amends for this disruption. Further details will be communicated in due course.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Other bin collections

Information about all other bins (black, green and pink lidded) can be found on the next page.
