Nottingham City Council to change bin collection dates...

Bin day changes in Nottingham

From 21st November, many households in Nottingham will have a new bin day. That's because the Council is making changes to its bin collection routes to make them quicker and more efficient. This will help us save fuel and therefore save money.

If these changes affect you, we will be letting you know by letter from 7th November. Your letter will contain information about your new bin day or your new collection cycle (if applicable). We'll also be sticking a sticker on your bin during the week beginning 14th November to remind you of the changes.

If you are on an alternate weekly collection, we'll also be sending you a new calendar taking you through until the end of 2012.

It's important to note that whilst you may have gotten used to having your bin emptied at a certain time of the day, this may change when we begin our new routes. Please make sure you put your bin out for collection before 7am on your collection day and we promise we'll empty it by 7pm that same day. If you think we've missed you, you can report a missed bin collection online or call 0115 915 2000.

Why are we making these changes?

Bin collection routes haven't been changed in a number of years. In this time, kerbside recycling has been introduced to nearly all households in the city. We're taking the opportunity to modernise our bin routes to reflect the additional services we now offer you and at the same time make our routes more efficient, save fuel, speed up collections and reduce the number of trucks on the road.

All this means that the average cost of your bin collection service is just 76p per household per week. It also means that we can save hundreds of thousands of pounds a year to pump back into other services.

New postcode finder tool

From Monday 7 November, you'll be able to type in your postcode here and we'll give you all your bin collection dates for the year ahead, including Christmas and Bank Holidays. Keep an eye out on this page for this new tool.

We understand that the change might take a bit of getting used to. Local bin crews and other people working in your area will be out and about and on hand to offer you help and support. Hopefully this will make any change easier for you. If you do forget to put your bin out on your new day, please let us know on 0115 915 2000 and we'll try our best to get back out to you to collect within 24 hours. We will also collect additional waste, which you can not fit into your bin. This should be placed in strong refuse sacks, tied and left out with the green bin.

If you have any questions about the changes that will be taking place from 21 November, in the first instance please click here to view our Frequently Asked Questions where you'll hopefully find what you're looking for. If not, please email the team on waste.manager@nottinghamcity.gov.uk or call 0115 915 2000.

Promotional video to visit Nottingham

An interesting take on Nottingham as a 'holiday destination' by Britain's Best Breaks from a few years ago. We're not sure whether anyone visited Nottingham as a result of it, or even if the company that made the promo are still in business. Nevertheless, the video's still fairly decent, and paints Nottingham in a decent image. A nice Sunday afternoon watch if you ask us!

We hope you enjoy their cheesy, but informative and easy-watching video! Comments welcome!
