Recycling Collection

The black recycling boxes are collected fortnightly on the same day as your general refuse. The black boxes can be used to recycle newspapers, stapled magazines, glass bottles and jars and textiles but not cardboard, junk mail, catalogues, plate glass or drinking glasses. Boxes must be placed kerbside by 7am on the day of collection.

The green bucket is collected weekly at the same time as your general refuse. The green bucket can be used for fruit and vegetable peelings, tea bags, egg shells, cooked and uncooked food. Please do not include any packaging, food wrappings, glass etc in this bucket.

Click on your town or village to view the street names and find out whether you are a week A or a week B for your black box collection and refer to the first line which tells you whether the current week is week A or B. . If your street does not appear in your chosen area try an adjoining area; eg. if you live in Ryde your street might appear in the Binstead listing.
