- Wednesday 31 December.
Bins and recycling containers should be put out for collection by 6am, or the night before.
Garden waste
If your garden waste is collected this week, it will be the final collection until the week beginning Monday 19 January. This pause allows us to prioritise waste and recycling collections during the festive period.
Bulky waste
Bulky waste collections will be paused from Thursday 18 December until Tuesday 13 January. Bookings for January collections will open on Monday 22 December.
