Waste and recycling service issues

Road closures

Should your area/road have a road closure on your scheduled collection day, our crews will endeavour to access the road to collect your refuse and recycling.

There will be times when the lorry is unable to gain access but will try again at a later date. On occasions it may be necessary to send a smaller van or make the collection on your next scheduled collection day. Alternatively you can place your refuse or recycling by the road closed sign and our crews will collect from there.

Please ensure you do not block any signage or access to the road for work/emergency vehicles
