Useful hints and tips
- Please have your wheelie bins out by 6:30am, as round times may change from week to week and we cannot guarantee what time our collectors will arrive.
- Your wheelie bins must be placed safely at or as near to the kerbside as possible - to be clearly visible to the collectors. There are strict guidelines given to our collectors about what is an acceptable distance to collect wheelie bins.
- Do not place recyclables in black sacks as they will be collected as normal refuse.
- Do not use plastic carrier bags for your recyclables.
- All recyclable items should be placed together in your recycling wheelie bin.
- We will accept excess recycling please place in an open crate /cardboard box or similar.
- Clean out all recyclable cans and bottles. Soiled items attract pests and will not be collected.
- Remove any lids and caps from bottles.
- Households that produce a lot of recyclable material may request additional or a larger recycling wheelie bin please telephone (01273) 263133. For more information about the new wheeled bin service see : AWS website (www.aws.gov.uk/Services/Recycling)
- If you have missed your collection you can either save your recyclable materials to the next collection or take them to your nearest mini recycling centre.
- Wheeled bins will be tagged telling you of any problems with what you have put in your recycling bin.
