Stroud District Council is reminding residents to take a note of changes to recycling and rubbish collections with the festive and new year season in full swing.
If your waste and recycling collection would normally fall on Thursday, December 26 it will now be collected on Saturday, December 28. Householders whose collection would fall on Wednesday 1 January – will now be collected on Saturday, January 4. All other collection days remain the same.
Environment Committee Chair, Councillor Chloe Turner said: “There will be more waste and recycling than normal over the holiday period, so please spare a thought for the recycling crews who will be out working hard in the cold weather. Large pieces of cardboard should be folded, flattened, and kept dry, and bins and recycling bags should be taken back in as soon as possible after collection, especially during windy weather. Thank you.”
