Drinkstone is in Area 2 so our brown bin collection will start again on Thursday 14th May.
You can find below the important information you need to support our residents:
- Residents should double check their collection day and or area on our website first, and make sure their bin is out on the right day at 6:30am
- We have also included an excel (attached) for you, to help support with residents’ queries, however, we ask that you don’t forward this on to residents.
- Only the bin(s) should be put out for collection – residents should not overfill them and must be able to close the lid.
- Any additional waste should be emptied into their bin(s) over several collections, or temporarily stored as we will only be collecting the bins.
- We continue to encourage residents to keep composting, as well as reduce their waste to ease pressure on services. Composting offers can be found on the Suffolk Recycling website.
- No residents will be out of pocket from the stoppage – no new invoices have been issued since the collections were forced to stop and subscriptions will be amended to reflect the missed collections with more details on our website.
- To prioritise collections of missed garden waste bins, we are currently not accepting new subscriptions until further notice.
- Residents should check for any unplanned delays on the councils website first, before reporting a missed bin or calling customer services, to help reduce pressure on services at this time.
Please do encourage residents to share information (safely of course) with neighbours and friends.
