Bin collection in Herefordshire
Herefordshire Council operates a fortnightly bin collection service for households across the county. Three bins are collected: a black 180-litre wheelie bin for general household waste, a green 240-litre wheelie bin for mixed recycling, and a brown 240-litre wheelie bin for garden waste. The black and green bins alternate on fortnightly rounds. The brown garden waste bin is a paid subscription service, running from April to December each year.
The green recycling bin accepts paper, cardboard, clean plastic bottles and tubs, food tins, glass bottles and jars, and metal cans. Items that cannot go in the green bin include shredded paper, nappies, polystyrene, and plastic bags — these should go in the black bin. Herefordshire does not offer a separate food waste collection; food scraps should be composted at home or placed in the black bin.
Collections do not run on bank holidays. When a bank holiday falls on or before your collection day that week, your bin day will be delayed by one working day for the rest of that week. Herefordshire Council publishes an amended schedule on their website each year for Christmas and New Year.
To report a missed bin collection, call Herefordshire Council on 01432 261761 or use the online form at herefordshire.gov.uk. Reports must be made within three working days. Bulky waste items such as sofas, mattresses, and fridges can be collected for a charge — booking is done through the Herefordshire Council website.
