Delays to recycling collections
Due to the recent fire at Elstow Waste Transfer Station, some scheduled recycling collections may be delayed this week. If your recycling bin hasn’t been emptied on your normal collection day, please continue to leave it out at the normal point of collection and our crews will return to empty.
All kerbside refuse, food and garden waste collections remain unaffected.
