Bin collections

To encourage as much recycling as possible, we provide the following:

• Weekly collections of food waste for recycling
• Fortnightly collection of non-recyclable rubbish in your green bin
• Fortnightly collections of paper, card, tins, cans, aerosols and plastic bottles in your blue recycling bin
• Fortnightly collections of glass bottles and jars in your glass recycling box (or purple bin if you have shared bins)
• Fortnightly garden waste recycling collections (if you subscribe)
• Weekly collections of small electrical items and batteries (placed on top of your green or blue bin) for recycling

This means we empty your blue bin, glass recycling and food waste one week and your green bin, food waste and garden waste (if you subscribe) the next.

We have a 'no excess waste policy'. This means we will not collect rubbish that is not in your bin. Please also make sure your bin lid is closed.
