From 20th December 2025 – 12 January 2026 only, you can put out up to two extra sacks of general waste next to your black bin. Extra recycling can be put out next to your green bin in clear sacks. Please make sure bins are out by 7am. If you have a real Christmas tree, you can put it in your garden waste bin.
