What Should I Do If My Bin Was Missed?

AI Summary

If your bin was missed in Rotherham, here's what you should do:

  1. Check if your bin is already reported: Leave your bin in its usual collection place if it's safe to do so. If your street name appears in the missed bin directory, the council is aware of the issue and will return to collect it soon.

  2. Report the missed collection: You can report a missed collection after 3pm on your collection day or the next working day. Your bin should have been placed out before 7am on the scheduled day, not blocking the pavement, and the lid must be shut.

Here's a quick reference for the process:
