This Easter there will be less disruption to bin collections in west Norfolk as crews will work on Good Friday to clear the usual Friday waste and recycling collections.
Cllr Sandra Squire, Cabinet Member for Environment and Coastal, explains:
“Collection crews will work on Good Friday this year meaning residents with a Friday collection will have it on their normal day.
“It has the additional benefit that our collection crews will get three days off which is great for their work life balance and the chance to be with their families for Easter.”
Collections the week starting with Easter Monday, 21 April, will take place a day later than your usual day, with crews working on Saturday 26 April to catch up.
Please ensure that your bin has been left out for collection by 7am on your collection day.
The following week, from 28 April, collections will be carried out on your normal day.
A week later the May Day holiday will occur on 5 May, collections during this week will also be a day later than normal, with the crews working on Saturday 10 May to catch up.
To check when your bin collections will be over the Easter and May holidays please visit west-norfolk.gov.uk/yourbins.
To report that your bin has not been emptied, please visit west-norfolk.gov.uk/missedbins or call 0330 1099220. Please report this within two days after the collection was due and before 12 noon on the second day.
