Bank Holiday Refuse, Recycling and Garden Collection Changes

Every effort will be made to collect your refuse, recycling and garden waste on the anticipated days show below. However, adverse weather, particularly snow/ice and extreme hot weather, can cause delays. If your bins are not emptied on the anticipated days, please bear with us and leave them out, as FCC Environment will empty them as soon as they are able.
