- Collections currently due on Wednesday 25th December (Christmas Day) will be collected on Saturday 21st December.

- Collections currently due on Wednesday 1st January (New Year’s Day) will be collected on Saturday 4th January.
All other recycling and waste collections during the rest of the Christmas and New Year period will remain the same.
Garden waste and bulk waste collections will stop on Friday 20 December 2013 and will restart on Monday 13 January 2014.
Cllr Alan Poole, Cabinet Member for Operational Services, said: “Many thanks to our crews who work extremely hard during this period, often in bad weather, to ensure that recycling and waste collections continue as usual.
"We’ve done our best to minimise disruption for our residents with most collections remaining unchanged. Collections currently due to take place on Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Years day have changed in order for our crews to be able to spend time with their families.
“Please remember that Boxing Day and New Year's Day collections will take place later than planned however and Christmas Day collections will be picked up four days earlier on Saturday 21 December.”
