Hot weather waste & recycling collections
With high temperatures forecast this week, the waste and recycling crews will start collections from 6:00am.
What this means for residents:
- Please put your bin out the night before, or before 6:00am on your collection day.
- If you’re waiting for a missed bin, leave it out – crews may arrive earlier than usual.
- Please help us spread the word to friends, family, and neighbours, especially those not on social media.
Looking out for our crews:
While we all enjoy the sunshine, working in extreme heat can be challenging and potentially dangerous for our collection teams. Starting earlier helps keep them safe.
If you would like to show your appreciation, a small gesture such as offering a cold drink or an ice lolly on a hot day would be hugely appreciated by the crews – it really does make a difference!
Hot weather tip:
Please remember to keep your bins cleaned and washed out, as heat can quickly cause unpleasant smells.
Thank you for your continued support.
Details of which containers to put out can be found using the ‘when is my collection?’ search facility.
