Back to News Winter suspension for green bin collections Residents across Bolsover District are being reminded that their green bin collections are now suspended during the winter months. Green bin collections have now ceased and will resume in March 2022. Suspension dates differ dependant on where you live in the District, so please refer to bin calendars delivered during November 2021. The service is being suspended as demand from householders significantly falls over the winter period when people are less active in their garden. There will be no change to the black and burgundy bin collections, but to help households with the extra waste generated over the festive period there will be extra black bin collections during this period. If residents do have jobs to do around the garden during the winter, this can be stored along with uncooked vegetable peelings in the green bin to be collected in the spring, or taken to their nearest Household Waste Recycling Centre. Residents are also reminded they can put their cooked food leftovers in their black bins during the green bin suspension period. Staff who normally undertake green bin collections will be used in other areas such as street cleansing and grounds maintenance to enhance those services. The green bin collections will resume week in March 2022 and for more information on waste and recycling collections please refer to the calendars delivered to your household in November Next Contacts 01246 242323 01246 242238 07772 867113 scott.chambers@bolsover.gov.uk charlotte.ellis@bolsover.gov.uk Documents No specific documents Links No specific links Find us on social media Subscribe to our Newsletter Accessibility Contact Us Data protection, CCTV and FOI Data transparency Privacy Subscribe Terms and Conditions © 2020 Bolsover District Council.
