Is the 180 litre bin the only size available?
The 180 litre bin holds the same as three normal waste sacks. If you find that the 180 litre bin is not big enough you can put your excess waste in black sacks next to your bin. Please make sure you take out all recyclable material. You can contact us for help or advice on how you can recycle or compost more of your waste. If you are regularly leaving out extra waste for collection, we may contact you to discuss how you can minimise your non-recyclable waste. A limited number of smaller, 120 litre bins will be available towards the end of this year for those who are infirm or disabled and cannot manage a 180 litre bin. Applications for these will be considered at the end of the year. Each household’s circumstances will be carefully assessed to ensure a fair distribution.
