Bank Holiday Refuse, Recycling and Garden Collection Changes
Every effort will be made to collect your refuse, recycling and garden waste on the anticipated days show below. However, adverse weather, particularly snow/ice and extreme hot weather, can cause delays. If your bins are not emptied on the anticipated days, please bear with us and leave them out, as FCC Environment will empty them as soon as they are able.
The online bin collection tool takes account of changes for bank holidays, but you can view the changes below.
