Waste And Recycling Update: Storm Ciaran

Amber weather warnings of winds up to 90mph have been issued across the south of England from 6am to 8pm on Thursday 2 November.

Due to the high winds forecast the following changes are in place for waste and recycling collections across the Island for Thursday collections.

  • Please do not put bins out tonight (Wednesday 1 November 2023) for collection tomorrow (Thursday 2 November)
  • Please instead put your bins out on Thursday morning (2 November.)

Service Director of waste and environment, Natasha Dix said:

“Under the waste and recycling rules, you are able to place bins out after 7pm the night before your collection.

“However, with the high winds forecast, we are asking for you to place your bins and reusable sacks out on the morning of your collection.

"This is to minimise any damage over tonight and early hours tomorrow to your bins and to prevent any bins from blowing into roads overnight.”
