Place your white sack out for collection once a fortnight at the kerbside, on the same day as your normal bin.

Please place your bag out before 7:00am on the day of collection.

Please contact our customer services team to order a free replacement/another white sack or collect one from the Environment Centre.

If you need help putting you bag out for collection then we can offer assistance if there is no one else in the house that could place the bag out for you.

Click here to apply for assistance.

We run a four-day collection system (Tuesday to Friday) so in most cases your collection day will not change following a bank holiday.
