What Should I Do If My Bin Is Damaged or Stolen?

AI Summary

If your bin is damaged or stolen in Coventry, the council provides a process for repair or replacement. Generally, they aim to repair bins rather than replace them, but if that's not feasible, you can request a new one.

Here's what you need to do:

  1. Request a bin repair or replacement from the council.
  2. Continue to present your bin for collection while waiting for repairs or a replacement. The crews will decide if it can be emptied.
  3. For any waste in the meantime, you can take it to the Household Recycling and Reuse Centre (the tip).

For detailed instructions and to follow through with your request, visit the following page: Request a new bin or repair.
