We will progressively swapping the bins currently on street with new or refurbished ones to ensure the appropriate number of bins for non-recyclable waste, mixed recycling, glass and food waste are provided to residents.

Within the next couple of weeks, each resident will receive a letter with a leaflet enclosed which includes the relevant information about the updated service (attached).

Moreover posters providing information on which bin to use for each material will be available on the back of stair doors (attached)
