Hot weather

The Met Office (opens new window) has forecast hot weather across Guildford. Read our advice during hot weather.

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 5.30am for the rest of the week. Thank you for helping our crews work safely during the hot weather.

Housing and Homelessness

Local government in Surrey is changing

From 1 April 2027, Guildford Borough Council and Surrey County Council will be replaced by a new unitary authority called West Surrey Council. All housing and homelessness services in Guildford will continue as normal throughout this change. This includes housing advice, tenancy and leasehold services, repairs, support and homelessness services. While the council name and brand will change, your home and the services you receive will not be affected. You do not need to take any action.
