Changes to recycling services

The Council is proposing to make a change to the recycling service from November 2008. Following customer feedback we want to improve the service, making it more efficient and simpler for everyone. All households (except those in blocks of flats or flats above shops) will be given a new blue box for mixed paper and card. Other recyclable materials will continue to be collected from the black box. No change will be made to collection days. For more details follow this link.
