Leeds bin collection dates
For some people, bins won’t be collected until two days later than usual, whereas others will have their bin collected the day before their scheduled collection.
Your recycle bin (green) and black waste bin will be emptied on alternating weeks, therefore whichever bin is affected by the dates should be put out on the revised date.
If you are a garden waste bin subscriber, this service only runs from March until November, therefore brown bin collection is not available throughout the festive period.
