Report a missed collection

You may experience delays to some collections due to temporary driver shortages by our collections teams. If your recycling, rubbish or garden waste collection is missed we will attempt to collect it the following day.

 You can report a missed collection for: 

  • recycling 
  • rubbish 
  • food waste  
  • garden waste  

You must report it within 2 working days after your collection day.

Contaminated recycling 

Your recycling will not be collected if it is mixed with things that cannot be recycled. It needs to be clean, dry and empty.
