The Christmas period will see some changes to waste and recycling collections.
There are important dates to remember in relation to other waste collection services too, including the garden waste service, bulky waste collections, and clinical and commercial/trade waste collections.
Regardless of any changes, please continue to ensure your bin is out by 6am on your collection day.
Charnwood Borough Council and our waste partners Serco would like to thank our residents for their support throughout 2023. We wish you a safe festive period and a happy new year.
We have created a Christmas waste collections card for residents. If you have neighbours, friends and/or family members who may not have access to the web, please consider printing off a copy and giving it to them in a card or in person.
We have also created a Christmas collections card featuring details of all the waste collection dates for residents to print off and put on their fridges, notice boards, etc.
