Waste collections calendar

Below you will find a link to a PDF download showing your full Waste and Recycling calendar for April 2024 to March 2025. 

The calendar shows:

• which bins will be emptied on which days
• details of bank holiday collections changes
• when we will collect extra garden waste from those properties that subscribe to our garden waste service.

All bins should be put out for collection before 6am, with the lids firmly closed.

How to access your full 2024-2025 Waste and Recycling Calendar

Bank holiday collection changes

When there’s a bank holiday or official public holiday, our waste and recycling collections will follow a revised schedule.

Here are the collection changes for the next holiday period:

Please note – to ensure crews are able to collect the additional waste and recycling produced over Christmas, garden waste collections will not take place between 25 December and 7 January. This service resumes from Wednesday 8 January / the week commencing 13 January, depending on your next scheduled collection – if you are unsure when this is, please check Binzone.
