Think Silver, Think Recycling - Your Recycling and Waste
Collection Service
The collection service is a three bin system:
recycling; garden and
other non-recyclable waste. All bins are collected
fortnightly and you only need to remember one collection day.
Recycling and garden bins are emptied one week and the other
non-recyclable waste bin on the alternate week.
If you are experiencing problems with your waste collection
please go to our problems with your bin
