Waste collection services to change

The green waste collection service will be suspended for a short period over the winter months. The break is part of the terms and conditions of the service that offers 22 collections a year with a shutdown period over Christmas and New Year.

The last collections will be on Friday 16 December and the service will resume on Monday 16 January.

The changes enable the waste collection service to concentrate on the extra recycling generated over the Christmas holiday period. Christmas trees will still be collected.

Current green waste subscriptions are valid until April. Residents wishing to continue with the service can re-new their subscription from mid December.
