Christmas bins

Bin collections will be affected by our Christmas schedule - some collections may be delayed by up to three days:

We sincerely apologise for the recent inconvenience caused by disruptions to bin collections over the Christmas period. Due to a severe staff shortage, bin collections have been delayed. We are working hard to complete as many collections as possible and expect services to return to normal by 13 January.

Thank you for your patience and understanding.
