Last week saw Storms Dudley and Eunice rip across the UK, and the latter caused major disruption to many services across the Bristol region. One of the more notable disruptions was that bins and recycling were not collected.
Due to the red warnings in place across the South West during Storm Eunice on Friday, the local councils took the decision not to operate waste collections due to the risk to the workers out during a dangerous weather event. The warning advised of the potential for flying debris and hazardous driving conditions.
Although there is currently a yellow warning in place until 1pm on Monday, waste collections are scheduled to go ahead as normal this week. Councils will also be making up for missed collections due to the storm.
