The streets in Newport where three weekly bin collections are starting first as date announced

A date has been announced for the rollout of three-weekly bin collections in one part of Wales. Newport City Council announced in March that household rubbish and garden waste bins, which are currently collected every two weeks, will move to three weekly collections in Newport.

The council is introducing the changes to help it meet its recycling targets, which it says could lead to large fines if it fails to do so. It has also warned of major budget pressures this year, which has led to some service cuts and an 8.5% council tax increase. You can read more about that here.

The council is rolling out the new collections on a phased basis, but further details had not been available until this week. However a date for the roll out to start has now been announced, as well as the list of streets that will see the changes first.

Newport City Council has announced that the first phase of its new three-weekly bin collection schedule will start from Monday, June 19. Around 12,100 households across the city will move to three-weekly collections as part of the first phase. A mix of streets and a mix of households has been selected from across the city.

From June 5 and over the next two weeks, residents whose streets have been selected for the first phase will receive a letter informing them that the changes are about to start, a leaflet explaining what the changes mean and why they are being introduced, and a calendar showing them their new collection dates for the next twelve months from June 2023,

All other Newport residents will then receive information on the changes later in the year, before they come into effect. The change has been brought in to help the council meet its recycling targets.

Currently the council is recycling around 67% of waste it collects. To meet Welsh Government targets, this needs to increase to 70% by 2024/25. Failure to meet this target will see the council liable for fines. At the current recycling rate, the fine from April 2025 would be in excess of £500,000 per year. All other waste services will remain unchanged.
