To ensure your bins and boxes are collected, please place them out the night before your scheduled collection.

Putting your recycling containers out for collection

• please stack your boxes as shown in the picture above
• place your blue food waste container or paper sack on the top box to act as a lid to prevent items from blowing away
• all recycling should be contained within your boxes
• cardboard should be folded or torn to fit inside your box

Side waste and overfilled black/green bins

• all waste must be contained inside your black/green bin with the lid closed
• overfilled or heavy bins cannot be emptied for health and safety reasons
• bags of waste left outside the black bin will not be collected unless they are authorised additional waste sacks 
• no additional waste will be collected from outside a green bin
