Household bin collections
This year there will be no bin collections on Christmas Day, Boxing Day or New Year’s Day making all household bin collections between 25 December 2025 and 10 January 2026 three days later than usual.
Please note, our collection crews will be working Saturdays - on 27 December, 3 and 10 January to catch up - so please check your collection day and let your neighbours know too.
Normal service will resume from Monday 12 January 2026.
It's a good idea to check your bin date using the link above but here's an overview for the Christmas period:

Garden waste service
The garden waste service will take its usual two-week break from Thursday 25 December, so our crews can concentrate on the household collections during our busiest time of year.
Christmas trees will be collected from garden waste members on their usual collection day once the service resumes on Thursday 8 January 2026.
