20 July 2012
Press release number: PR1856
Residents are being advised that due to the expected heavy
traffic during the London 2012 Olympic Games refuse and recycling
collections will start earlier.
Letters are going out across the Borough informing residents
that as of Monday 30 July refuse and recycling will be collected on
the normal collection day but needs to be put out for collection by
6am during the Olympic and Paralympic Games.
Alterations
These alterations are being made to ensure that collections can
be completed on resident’s regular collection day. The
Council will return to its normal patterns and times from Monday 10
September.
Commercial Waste collections will remain the same.
Secure your rubbish
Residents are also asked to try to ensure that rubbish is stored
securely in a bin to prevent it being attacked by animals and
spilling out into gardens and roads.

social media feeds will be regularly updated with news and
information including details of any service changes.
