Assisted bin collections
If no member of the household is able to move bins to the front of your property for collection, you can ask us for help.

What happens next
The bins must be kept at the front or side of your property, so that the bin crews can clearly see them when they arrive. We cannot accept gate codes, keys or fobs.
We will provide this service for a fixed period of time. After this time, we may ask you to reapply so we can make sure you're still eligible. We may withdraw this service at any time if we believe you are no longer eligible.
Cancelling assisted collections
If you no longer require assisted bin collections at your address, please cancel them using the 'Cancel' link in the confirmation email you received when you sign up for the service.
This will help to ensure that our crews are freed up to help more vulnerable residents.

If you live in a shared block of flats
We do not provide assisted collections if you live in a shared block of flats. Instead, contact your managing agent, caretaker or cleaner for help taking your waste to shared bins.
