Service Changes
Latest updates and changes to waste and recycling services in Bristol.
Recycling collection service update: 8 July 2025
Important update ❗
Due to more hot weather forecast later this week, our refuse (general waste) and recycling collections teams will be starting at an earlier time than usual.
If your bin day is Thursday 10 or Friday 11 July, please put out your bins and recycling containers before 5am.
Starting a bit earlier allows us to get a head start on the heat and helps keep our hardworking teams safe.
Thank you for your patience, we appreciate your support in keeping our crews, you and your neighbours safe.
