Litter and litter bins

We are responsible for keeping the area clean and free of litter.

We clean town centres continuously and the roads are cleaned once every 8 to 12 weeks. If you feel there is an area that needs extra service, please let us know and we will check it out.

Please note that we are unable to use mechanical sweepers on block paved areas. This is because blocks can be sucked into the machines which causes damage to the sweeper and pavements. If block paved areas need sweeping, please let us know to request a manual sweeper.

We will:

  • Empty all litter bins at least once a week.
  • Assess reports of damaged bins or bins that need replacing within five working days.

You can report an issue to us by phone, on 01724 297000.
