Request clear sacks 

Report brown sacks not left 

An alternative to the bin collection service can be provided when a household:  

• has no space to store a bin or bins off the public highway  
• has no suitable location to present wheeled bins for collection  
• has physical barriers such as steps, steep inclines or long distances that prevent safe handling of a bin to the collection point  
• requires bins to be wheeled through the house from storage to collection point  
• has all adults living at the property who have a physical disability or issue that prevents them from being able to place waste in a wheeled bin  

When a household only has sufficient space to accommodate one wheeled bin, priority will be given to the provision of a mixed recycling (blue bin). The following service will be provided as an alternative:  

• clear sacks for mixed recycling. Please do not include broken glass, crockery,  or knives because of the risk of injury to collection crews.
• brown sacks for garden and food waste. Up to 4 sacks will be replaced per collection, (which is the equivalent to the standard bin size).
