The long Easter weekend on 18 to 21 April means your recycling and rubbish collections will be a day later. There won’t be collections on Friday 18 April or Monday 21 April.
If you usually have a Friday collection, it will move to Saturday, 19 April.
Collections resume on Tuesday 22 April, and will be a day later all week.
Usual collection day | Revised collection day |
Friday 18 April | Saturday 19 April |
Monday 21 April | Tuesday 22 April |
Tuesday 22 April | Wednesday 23 April |
Wednesday 23 April | Thursday 24 April |
Thursday 24 April | Friday 25 April |
Friday 25 April | Saturday 26 April |
To help crews speed up collections, please put your boxes, bags and bins out by 7am on the day of collection, or the night before.
With waste collections a day later a higher volume of waste is likely. Squashing, crushing and flattening waste can help to reduce the number of trips that teams need to make to empty their trucks, as well as creating more space in your containers.
