Attention students living off campus in the community! From DECEMBER 2ND there will be changes to your bin collection service, and your black non-recyclable waste bags will now be collected on ‘green weeks’, with garden waste now collected on ‘pink weeks’!

*There will be NO garden waste collections between 2 December 2024 and 28 February 2025. Garden waste will be collected on your pink week when the kerbside collections restart (from 3 March).
