What goes in my bins?

The council's recycling and waste service consists of three wheeled bins, a kerbside box and a recycling bag .  Our aim - with your support - is to reduce the amount of waste going to landfill.

We have a green lidded bin for your green waste, a brown bin for plastics, tins, foil, paper and cardboard, a smaller kerbside box for glass, a red bag for clothing and a traditional black wheelie bin for everything else.

 In most cases we empty your recycling bins one week and your black bin on the alternate week. You will receive an annual calendar detailing your collection days.

The Black Lidded Wheelie Bin is only to be used for general household waste that cannot be recycled. Please see the below guide to your extensive recycling service.
