Changes to Collection Days – Household Rubbish and Recycling Bins

From the 6 June, South Norfolk Council’s rubbish and recycling collection rounds will be changing and it is likely that the day the bins are emptied in your parish will change. We would appreciate if you could assist us with publicising these changes.

Next week we will be sending information packs to every property in your parish explaining what the changes, if any, will be. The pack includes an FAQ leaflet, bin stickers and their new collection calendar.

We thought it would be helpful to let you know what is happening in the ward in which your parish is situated. Below is the information about the new collection schedules across the ward including your parish:

Current collection days: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday

New collection days from 6 June: Wednesday, Thursday or Friday

Number of properties:

  • 1168 properties will have rubbish collected on a Thursday and recycling on a Thursday (on a regular alternate cycle)
  • 10 properties will have rubbish collected on a Friday and recycling on a Wednesday (on a regular alternate cycle)
  • 14 properties will have rubbish collected on a Friday and recycling on a Thursday (on a regular alternate cycle)

 

During the changeover to the new service, some properties in your parish may have two collections in the first week. Additional information about these collections will be included in their pack.

 

Information is also available on the Council’s website at www.south-norfolk.gov.uk/bins. If you have any further questions you can e mail me direct.

 

Kind regards,
