Introduction
We’ll soon be making some changes to bin collection days across the Borough. While not all households will be affected, most routes and schedules will need to be adjusted, so we encourage residents to check their own collection dates once the updated calendars are available.
How do I find out if my collection date has changed?

Why is my bin collection changing?
Over the years with new homes being built in North Warwickshire the existing rounds have become unbalanced and need to be rebuilt to ensure that the service you receive is operating effectively and efficiently.
In addition, the Council want to ensure that every resident has the opportunity to recycle and to play their part in reducing the amount of waste sent to incineration or landfill.
The changes will allow us to introduce in the future; a food waste collection services and a battery and small electrical and electronic collection. The service changes will allow us to reduce the risk of fires in the refuse trucks whilst separating these items for recycling and recovery.
