If your bin is scheduled to be collected on Tuesday, we'll start collections from 6am. This is due to the hot weather and our commitment to the safety of the teams. Leave your bins out the night before or no later than 6am on the collection day.

Policy 21 - Stickers on containers and painted containers

The council encourage residents to mark up their containers with their property name or number for identification purposes.

The council reserve the right to insist that only communication stickers provided by the council will be allowed on containers, or stickers and other markings which residents use to identify their bin e.g. house number. Other advertising/promotional stickers put on the bins without the permission of the council, may be removed.

Bins that have had the colour painted or disguised will be removed and a charge made for a new bin to be delivered.
