Have your say on the future of local councils in Surrey

Take part in a landmark Government consultation on proposals to replace Surrey's current councils with up to three larger authorities. We support a three unitary approach - Find out more and read our consultation question guide.

Join us for a special online engagement session hosted by the Leaders of Guildford and Waverley Borough Councils on Thursday 3 July from 7pm to 8pm via Microsoft Teams. We'll explain what Local Government Reorganisation is, outline the different options being considered, and show you how to get involved. Sign up for the session (opens new window).

We only collect bins issued by us. Do not put any other bins out for collection. Put all food in the outdoor food caddy for collection. We do not collect the silver food waste caddy. 

Leave textiles or electronic waste neatly next to your bins. Put them in a carrier bag and keep any textiles dry. Batteries need to be in a clear plastic bag.

If you're a commercial waste customer, you'll need to log in to your MyGuildford to check your next bin collection date.

Where should I put my bins?

Unless you have a special arrangement, like an assisted collection, leave your bins at your collection point. This is usually at the edge of your property closest to the road.
