July - August 2023

 

We'll send you a letter explaining the changes to your waste and recycling services.

Your green rubbish bin lids will be changed to red lids. 

Please note: If your green lid has not yet been changed to red don’t worry, 65,000 bins is a wheelie lot to change.

We've got a process in place to make sure all lids continue to be changed.

There's no need to call, please continue to leave your bin out on your collection day.
