Bad weather disruption
We may not be able to make a collection if the weather is particularly bad and it would be dangerous for the crews to go out in the lorries. If they are not able to leave the depot safely then we cannot do the collection rounds even if parts of the district are clear.
In the event of icy or snowy conditions, please put your bins and caddies out as normal by 7am on your collection day. Our crews will do their very best to get to everyone, however, if they aren’t able to get to you, please leave your bin out and they will attempt to return for it later in the week.
We are unable to return for missed food waste or garden waste collections. Please present your container on the next scheduled collection day.
Updates will be available on our facebook page.
