Bank Holiday Monday has disrupted bin collection schedules for some parts of Wales. Here’s how you can find out when your bins will next be collected.
The latest bin collection information should be available on your local council’s website. Alternatively, check the social media of your local council for updates on the bin collection schedule.
Bin collections are usually handled by your district, borough or city council. If you’re not sure who is responsible for your waste collection, you can use the Government’s postcode search to find your local council’s bin collection day. It will take you to your local authority’s website where detailed information should be available.
