Why are some bins not collected?
Your bins can be missed for a variety of reasons. Sometimes these reasons can be beyond your control. For example, your bin can be contaminated by pedestrians when they are on the kerb. We understand that such scenarios may not be your fault, however whilst our bin crews cannot verify this, they may not be able to return to collect your bins.
I have reported a missed bin, how can I follow up the progress?
When you report a missed bin you will receive a reference number which you can use to track your report. Find out how you can follow up your missed bin report on our missed bin collections page.
If you see 'Why can't I report this missed bin?' it means that it has been over 72 hours since your bin collection and will no longer be able to report your missed bin collection.

Are your bin days not showing for next week?
If your bin days are not showing for next week it may mean that your next bin collection day is beyond 7 days away. In this case, you may need to try again after a few days have past.
Need help putting your bins out each week?
If you need help making sure your bins are picked up each week, you can apply for our assisted waste collection service.
This service means that you do not need to move your bins to a public path or kerb for bin day. For more information see our Apply for the assisted waste collection service.
Subscribe to a Garden waste service

When are the Garden waste collection windows?
The annual plan: our crews will collect your brown bins every two weeks between April 2023 and March 2024.
