Kerbside Recycling Collection

Shropshire Waste Partnership are responsible for managing household waste and recycling services on behalf of North Shropshire District Council and other Shropshire authorities.

These services will be delivered on behalf of SWP by Veolia Environmental Services.  Veolia will be responsible for producing and delivering your collection date calendars and other information leaflets.

To collect recyclables from your kerbside

Each household is provided with two recycling boxes (flats were delivered a single box but an additional box can be provided free of charge if it is required and you have room to store it) in which you can put:

• Newspapers and magazines
• Glass bottles and jars - rinsed out but not broken
• Food and drink cans - rinsed and squashed

Your boxes are emptied on the same day as your green waste bin.  Just put your box out with your green bin on the right day and your recyclables will be collected as well!

Your collection

Your kerbside recycling boxes are emptied fortnightly on the same day as your green waste collection.  One week SWP empty your green bin and your kerbside recycling boxes.  The following week, on the same day of the week, SWP collect your refuse from your grey bin.
