Alterations to Kerbside Recycling Collection Service
Council has entered into a new long term arrangement with its kerbside recycling contractor, which has led to a required change in the week that the fortnightly kerbside recycling is collected. Click here to view the recycling calendar.
Your yellow wheelie bin should be placed kerbside each fortnight along with your existing bin on your collection day. Please ensure that your bins are placed at least 1 metre apart at the kerb.
