Where to put your bin
Bins from terraced houses should be put out for emptying at the end of the alleyway collection point.
Food caddies are the only containers that should be put at the front of your property.
Bins from non-terraced houses should be put out for emptying at the front of the property.
How to put your bins out
Please note, that we will not be able to empty your bin if:
- It was not put out for collection by 7am on your collection day
- Collection crews recorded your bin was not out for collection
- Your missed collection was not reported within 2 working days
- The wrong things were in the bin
Accessibility for Crews
Where possible, please make sure that crews are able to access the streets.
Particularly for narrow streets where parked cars could cause issues. If possible, please park so that crews can easily gain access on collection day.
