When is My Bin Day?

Black wheeled bin

Your black wheelie bin, for your rubbish, is collected once a week.  Your recycling box is collected fortnightly on the same day as your rubbish.

  • If you live in a house, go to our Bin Day Collection Calendars
  • If you live in a flat, go to Refuse Collection in Flats as residents in flats often have their waste collected on different days to the surrounding houses.  In addition, refuse and recycling may be collected on separate days.

Collection Points and Times (Houses)

Please ensure that both your wheelie bin and recycling box are placed at the boundary of your property by 7am on the day of collection.

If you are unable to move either your wheelie bin or recycling box, we may be able to help.  Please see our assisted collections page for more information. 

Bank Holidays

If your collection day is a bank holiday, your refuse and recycling will still be collected as normal.

Christmas and New Year

This is the only time that refuse and recycling collections will alter.  

Green wheeled bin

Green Garden Waste Scheme

If you are on the green garden waste scheme, your collection will be fortnightly on a weekday.
