Bin collections

Due to the high temperatures, our bin crews will be starting collections earlier than usual to help keep them safe in the heat. Please make sure your bins are out the night before, as collections will take place from 6.00am for the rest of the week. Thank you for helping our crews work safely during the hot weather.

Daylight/sunlight assessment

This is required if:

  • your project is likely to block light from reaching another site
  • the other site has sensitive uses which will be impacted by the change in light levels
