Your bin collection day has changed to alternate weeks in Sandwell to help improve recycling rates and reduce disposal costs. This shift aligns with the government's Simpler Recycling legislation and aims to make bin collection services more efficient and environmentally friendly.
Here's a breakdown of the new collection schedule:
| Week | Collection Type |
|---|---|
| Week 1 | Recycling (blue lid bin and blue bag) |
| Week 2 | Non-recycling (grey bin) |
From 15 September 2025, collections will alternate weekly between recycling and non-recycling. Each household received a new collection calendar and can check the online bin day finder for specific collection days. If you need more details, you can visit the online bin day finder.
