Name That Wagon competition is back for 2024!

The Council is adding two new bin lorries to its current fleet of refuse and recycling vehicles and young residents are being asked once again to name them.

Name That Wagon gives youngsters a chance to tell us what they would name one of the new bin wagons.

The two winning name suggestions will be added to the lorries later this year and join the rest of the fleet whose names can be found on this webpage.
