Green Bin Collection Changes
Dear Residents,
I hope this find you well. If you have not already seen yesterday evening or this morning, please see our press release regarding the suspension of green bin from Monday 13 December:
https://www.scambs.gov.uk/green-bin-collections-suspended-from-monday-13-december/, https://www.cambridge.gov.uk/news/2021/12/08/green-bin-collections-suspended-from-monday-13-december
At present, the collections will resume on Wednesday 12 January 2022 in line with the Christmas collection date changes. As the green bin collections would have turned turn to their usual 4-weekly cycle from w/b 27 December/3 January, the suspension is adding an extra two weeks to this, so residents will only be missing one green bin collection throughout the planned suspension. Residents are advised to check the websites for updates and for their collection days via the online calendar which have been updated to reflect this. If you have any other queries, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
For additional information, below is a copy of the bin collection dates changes over the festive period. (Note Barton days are normally Wednesday.)
