Waste, Collection & Recycling
Please remember to use your recycle box and green bag if you have them. It's also important that you keep your wheelie-bin in your back yard and not in the entry - this could cause a security threat even if you have rear alley gating.
If you have any rubbish that won't fit in your wheelie-bin you can leave it at the front of your house (not on the street) and the Council will collect it and dispose of it completely free of charge when you call this number.
