Textiles

You can put old clothes and textiles in a tied bag and leave it next to your bins on your recycling, garden waste or household (non-recyclable) waste collection day. Please make sure the bag is securely fastened so that rainwater cannot soak the items.

Please note that donations are intended for reuse wherever possible. We discourage putting rags out for collection; these should be taken to your local Household Waste Recycling Centre instead.

If we are unable to collect your items when they are first presented, please place them out again on your next scheduled collection day.

Small Electrical Equipment

Small electrical items can be left in a carrier bag and on the top of, or by the side of, your bin on your scheduled dry recycling, garden waste or non-recyclable waste collection day. If you do not have a carrier bag, electrical items may be left loose. In order for this items to be collected, they must be small enough to fit into the storage facility underneath the refuse collection vehicles.
Please do not put any electrical equipment inside any of your bins.
