Bedfordshire

The last collection for each area will be either the week starting Monday, 18 November or Monday, 25 November. Residents should check which week applies to their area. Other waste collections will continue as usual during this time.

Residents can sign up for email alerts to receive updates about when collections restart and other changes, including future subscription renewals. Find out more about garden waste and collection dates.

During the break, residents can still recycle garden waste at any of our 4 household waste recycling centres. These are open daily from 9am to 5pm, including bank holidays. Read more about our tidy tips, including Christmas and New Year opening hours.

If you have space, you could consider home composting. We offer subsidised eco-friendly composting and water butt products for Central Bedfordshire residents, helping you reduce waste, save money, and conserve resources.
