Bin collections
Check your rubbish and recycling collection days in Aldershot and Farnborough or report a missed bin.
No change for bin collections at Easter
There are no changes to your bin collections this week because of the bank holidays (Good Friday and Easter Monday), so please put your bins out on the normal day.
As the crews start work early, please make sure your bins are out in plenty of time.

We also separately collect batteries and small electrical items for recycling.
Our garden waste recycling service is fortnightly and costs £43 a year. Find out more on our Garden waste recycling service page.

If you have extra recycling, you can order free clear recycling sacks by filing in our request recycling sacks form.
Once you have these sacks, please fill them up and put them out next to your blue bin for collection.

Rubbish bins
We issue 140-litre rubbish bins as standard and all new and replacement bins are this size. If you have a large family or exceptional circumstances, we may be able to give you a larger rubbish bin. Please contact us using the details on this page.
Recycling bins or glass recycling boxes
There are three different sizes of recycling bin, so if you regularly have extra recycling and feel that your bin is not big enough, you can order a larger one or an extra one for free. You can also order an extra glass recycling box from us.
Unwanted bins
If you have a bin at your home that you no longer need, we can take it away for you.
Information about your collections
We collect rubbish in one vehicle and recycling and glass in separate sections of another vehicle.
Timing of collections
- Collections usually start at 7am in most roads and are usually finished by mid-afternoon.
- Please put out your bins and glass containers at the edge of your property (nearest point to the road) before 7am on your collection day, or the night before
- For safety reasons, collections start earlier in these roads:
- Fleet Road, Farnborough - 6.30am
- Victoria Road, Farnborough - 6am
- Ash Road, Aldershot - 6.30am
- Lower Farnham Road, Aldershot - 6am
- North Lane, Aldershot - 6.15am
Please make sure your bins and glass containers are ready for collection, before these times.
For the safety of our crews, in very hot weather we may start collections in all roads from 6am. This is to make sure that where possible, the staff have completed their round before the hottest part of the day.
How to get the best out of the rubbish and recycling service
- We have a 'no excess waste' policy. This means we will not collect extra rubbish left by your rubbish bin. Please make sure your bin lid is closed
- Please see our what you can put in your blue recycling bin page to make sure that you are recycling everything that you can
- Please do not put any garden waste or DIY waste in your green or blue bins. You can take these to your local household waste recycling centre. You can also compost garden waste at home or join our garden waste recycling service
