Changes to Waste Collection

Aberdeen City Council are changing the way that Waste Collection is operated in the City.  You will soon be receiving a new waste bin which should be used for general waste.  Your current bin should only be used for mixed recycling waste such as newspapers, glassware  and plastics.  Your brown bin should be used for garden and food waste.

You will receive a leaflet that fully explains the changes that are being made to the waste and recycling service.

The Council say that it may take up to 11 weeks to complete deliveries but that once the new bin is delivered you should start to use it straight away.

The days on which you put out the various bins have already been distributed in a collection calendar and you should start using these dates straight away.
