Bin collections
Collection crews will start bin collection rounds up to 30 minutes earlier on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday due to hot weather. Please put bins out the night before.
Extra waste
How to apply for an additional rubbish bin.
If your household needs additional rubbish capacity, you can apply to be assessed to receive a second rubbish bin.
Before you apply
Before considering an additional rubbish bin you will need to:
- already have a large rubbish bin (360 litres)
- demonstrate that you are recycling as much as possible
- tell us if you have any waste related to a medical condition or your family situation
- tell us the number of people in the household and any other details that may be relevant to the request
Apply for a second bin
To apply to get a second rubbish bin, please make a request.
We will review your request and contact you to let you know the outcome within 7 working days.
If you are approved for a second bin, there will be a charge of £15.
Emptying second bins
A second bin will only be emptied where it has been applied for and approved. We review this arrangement every 2 years.
