Missed Collections

Before reporting a missed collection, please check if your waste was presented:

  • on the correct collection day*
  • by 7am on the day of collection
  • without contamination**


*If you have the wrong day, please re-present the waste on your next collection day.

**If you have presented any recycling with prohibited items (for example, food waste in pink sacks), your recycling sack/box/bin will have a notification on it informing you that your waste was not collected because of this.  Please ensure you do correctly separate your waste for the next time, and present it on your next collection day.
