Bin days and missed bins

Garden waste bins are collected every fortnight*, on the same day as recycling (blue bins).

Christmas & New year collections

Garden waste collections are suspended over the Christmas and New Year period, but your black and blue bins will be collected during this time.

Please view our online bin calendar to find out more. 

On other bank holidays during the year, your collection days won't be affected.

Missed bins

If your garden bin is not emptied, find out how to report a missed bin. 

Report a missed bin

During very icy or snowy weather we may suspend collections to safeguard our crews and trucks. In such circumstances we will do our best to return as soon as possible. If we cannot return to empty your bin, we are sorry but will not offer any refunds for any missed collections.

*The garden waste collection service is provided on alterative weeks (maximum of 23 garden waste collections), with a short shutdown over the Christmas and New Year period.
