Residential Waste

• Residential Rubbish Collections

  Search for your day of collection using our database, plus read a guide to reporting missed bins and alterations due to Bank Holidays.

• Missed Refuse Collections

  See what we class as a 'missed bin' and find out how to report it to us.

• Bulky Waste Collection

  We offer a separate service for larger items like fridges and other waste too bulky for regular collections.

• Sharps Collection

  We operate a weekly Sharps Bucket Collection Service to safely dispose of sharp objects, like used and unused syringes.

• Clinical & Medical Waste Collection

  We provide a collection service to domestic properties who require the disposal of infectious and offensive wastes.

• Hazardous Waste

  Due to hazardous waste regulations, you are not able to dispose of certain items with your regular waste collections. These should be separated.

• Buying Wheeled Bins

  To reduce odours, maintain high quality street cleanliness and help crews with collections we advise households to store their rubbish in a wheeled bin, which we provide at an additional cost.

• Law on Household Waste

  Householders have a duty to dispose of their waste in a responsible manner and could face a fixed penalty notice or prosecution if this isn't done. We've produced a guide to help you keep within the law.

• Householder's Responsibility

  If your rubbish is fly-tipped, possibly ending up in a field or lay-by, you could face a fine of up to £5,000. Even if you didn't dump the waste yourself!
