Refuse - household waste

The Council has signed up to the Local Government Association commitment to provide waste and recycling services which are both good value for money whilst meeting the needs of our residents. To see a copy of this agreement, follow this link.

 Refuse / household waste collection service - We provide a weekly refuse collection across the borough for household waste which cannot be recycled. To find out what day your bin is collected please contact customer services >>>> 

 Bulky / large item collection service - There will be a charge for bulky waste collection introduced for collections made from Autumn, 2010 onwards. The cost will be £10 for 50 units worth of items being removed, which ranges between 1-5 items. Items are based on a points based system as at present. Item numbers over 50 units in total per collection will cost more. There is no longer a restriction on the number of collections per household.  You may also wanted to consider donating your unwanted items to charity >>>>

 Skip hire - A range of skips are available to hire at competitive prices for various periods of hire. You may be required to apply for a permit for your skip depending on where you intend to locate it. More >>>>
