As many of you will be aware, since around early March the council refuse collection service has been patchy. This was due to a combination of industrial action, vandalism of the refuse trucks and coronavirus-related staff shortages.
The good news is that from tomorrow, Monday 27th April the collection of garden and food waste resumes across the borough.
If like me you have forgotten the day particular waste is collected, the council have a useful form you can use to find out:
For most of the MEOTRA area, collections seem to be Tuesdays (Food/Garden) and Thursday (residual -aka black bags)
Unfortunately, the council are still not collecting bulky waste and the council skip (known in council jargon as the "Reuse and recycling centre or RRC") is closed until further notice.
