Garden waste

We operate a paid-for kerbside garden waste collection service every two weeks.

Glass recycling

We provide fortnightly glass collection from the kerbside. We will take any excess glass at your collection as long as it is in a suitable container and not too heavy.

Bulky waste collection

We can arrange to pick up large household items from your home for a fee.

Clinical waste

Your GP can set up clinical waste collection from your home.

Assisted collections

If you are unable to take your bin to the edge of your property, and have no-one who can do it for you, we may be able to help.

Simpler recycling for workplaces
