Leeds bin day: When are bin collections during coronavirus lockdown?
Leeds Council has cut some of its services during coronavirus lockdown, but key workers are still providing vital work across the city.
Bin collections are still running as of Monday, March 30, but with some changes.
Here is everything you need to know:
Green and black bins
For now, green and black bins are being collected as normal.
Leeds Council is continuing to monitor the situation and changes to collection may be made.
Garden waste (brown bins)
All brown bin collections are suspended until further notice.
Garden waste must not be put in your black or green bins. If you do they won’t be collected.
Public litter bins
Litter bins will not be emptied until further notice.
The council urges you NOT to use these bins and many have been taped over.
Household waste and recycling
All council waste and recycling centres are closed until further notice.
Unwanted item collections
The council is no longer collecting unwanted bulky items from households and existing bookings are being cancelled.
You will be contacted about a refund in the next few days.
Street cleaning
The council has reduced street cleaning activities such as litter picking and sweeping.
