Collection of bins
Have your bin out by 6:30am on the day of collection. Remember that the council operates a "no side waste" policy - any waste (bagged or loose) placed at the side of your bins will not be taken.
If you know which day of the week your bins are collected, you can download a calendar for your bin days below.
For garden waste (brown bins), the district is split into two collections: week 1 and week 2. You will know which week you are when you receive your garden waste sticker if you sign up to the garden waste service.
You can also search for your bin days by postcode.

Email reminder service
You can sign up to receive email reminders of upcoming bin days. On the evenings prior to your bin collection day, we can send you an email at 5pm to remind you of your upcoming collection and to tell you which colour of bin we will be collecting. You can sign up for this via the find your bin collection day tool.
Simply search for your postcode and select your address from the list. Once you have selected your address, information on your recent and upcoming collections can be seen and you will be able to enter your email address to sign up for the email reminder service.
