Collections: Fortnightly

Please place your black bags out for collection before 7.00am on your collection day.

From Monday 01 February, we will return to the 2 black bag limit per household.

Standard size black bags will need to be used
Extra-large bags such as wheelie bin liners will not be collected
Where additional black bags are put out, they will not be collected and enforcement action may be taken
Over Christmas and New Year the restriction will not apply
