Collection day

This section tells you how to find out which bin to put out and when.

To increase the efficiency in waste collection and to reduce the refuse vehicles carbon footprint across the districts, all Mid Suffolk residents will be asked to present the same coloured bin on the same week i.e. black refuse bin one week with recycling bin the following week. At the moment, for any given week, Mid Suffolk residents have their black bins emptied while Babergh residents have their recycling bins emptied. The Council will continue to provide an alternate weekly collection.
