Changes to bin collections due to hot weather
To help our collection crews during the current hot weather, bin collections will begin an hour earlier than usual over the coming days. For all collections up to, and including Tuesday 15 July, please make sure you put your bins, sacks and containers out by 6:00am to avoid missed collections. Thank you for your cooperation and support.
