We are proud to offer a kerbside recycling service that allows 90% of our residents to recycle at home.
Each household has been provided with three bins: a blue bin for recycling; a brown bin for garden waste; and a green bin for general refuse. For more information on the three bin system see the page on the three bin service|.
Blue and green bins
The blue and green bins are collected alternately. To find out when you should put out your bin, check whether your area is in Cycle A| or Cycle B| and download the relevant document. Alternatively you can phone 01324 504444.
Please put your blue or green bin on the kerbside before 7.30am on your normal collection day.
If you live in a multiple occupancy building (e.g. a flat or tenement) and would like to find out your blue bin/bag collection days please see the page on multiple occupancy collections|.
Brown bins
We also offer a fortnightly collection for brown bins during the summer months with a return to monthly collections over the winter months. There will be a break over the festive period. Please check your collection calendar for dates.
