Earlier waste collection start times – week beginning Monday 22 June

Due to the extreme weather forecast, our waste collection crews will begin work earlier than usual, starting from 6am each day this week. This change applies to all areas of Castle Point and will help our teams work during the cooler part of the day, reducing the risk of heat exhaustion. We kindly ask all residents to please put their waste out the evening before, or by 6am on the day of collection, for this week only.

Thank you for your cooperation and support.
