Waste Collections

We collect rubbish on a weekly system. This means that we will collect your plastic sack containing your waste each week. The Council will provide you with one replacement black plastic sack following collection each week.

Collections start early, so please put your sacks out by the road by 7am on the morning of collection, but no earlier than 6pm the day before. Please do not to put your sacks out too early, this will reduce the risk of them being split by pests and causing litter.

Bank holiday collections

For weeks that contain a bank holiday, waste collections during that week will be one day later than usual.

For example, if your normal collection would take place on a Monday, it will take place on the Tuesday. If your normal collection would take place on a Friday, it will take place on the Saturday.

Collection days also change at Easter, Christmas and New Year you will be informed of these changes closer to the time, and details will also appear on this site.

Missed replacement bags i.e Black and Brown sacks, must be reported by the end of the next working day and will be replaced within 2 working days

Householders are entitled to one black refuse sack per week.  Brown bags will be replaced like for like by Veolia, up to a maximum of 4 per household.  e.g. if you leave out 4 bags, then 4 will be left.  If you leave out 6 bags, only 4 will be left.  Additional brown bags can be purchased from these outlets.

If you have just moved into the area, or are about to move into the area, you can request a new customer pack from Veolia.  This will include a black recycling box, green waste recycling bags and a recycling and collections calendar.  Your welcome pack will be delivered within 5 working days of your request, or within 5 working days of your moving date.  To request a new customer pack, please complete this online form.
