What goes in each bin

Early start for collections

Due to the high temperatures predicted for Tuesday 1 July 2025, we will begin collections at 6am instead of the normal 7am start time. This is to minimise the effect this weather could have on our collection crews.

You can view what goes in each bin, box or sack, or search by item to find out how to dispose of a particular item.
