Due to the hot weather, we'll start collecting bins from 6am on Monday 30 June and Tuesday 1 July. If your bin is due for collection, make sure you put your bins out the night before or no later than 6am on the day of collection.

Policy 26 – Infectious healthcare waste and sharps and needles

The council offers a collection of healthcare waste and sharps and needles from householders.

Requests for a regular clinical bagged waste will be set up once an application has been received and endorsed by a health care professional.

An agreed collection point, day of collection, frequency of collection, size and type of container and any other specific instructions regarding this service will be decided by the council.

Sharps collections (needles & syringes) can be requested adhoc using the online booking system. The council may request residents to obtain sharps boxes from their health care professional.
