If your bin was not collected because it was labeled as contaminated, you’ll need to remove any incorrect items that don't belong in that bin. After you've cleaned it out, you'll want to put it out again on your next scheduled collection day.
Here’s a quick summary of the steps you should take:
| Action | Details |
|---|---|
| Remove Contaminants | Take out any items that do not belong. |
| Re-presentation | Put the bin out on your next collection day. |
| Collection Timing | Ensure the bin is at the kerbside by 6 AM. |
If you need to report the missed collection, you can do so at any time up to three working days after the collection date. More details and forms are available on the City of Edinburgh Council website.
