City of York Council runs one of the most frequent household collection services in Yorkshire, covering general waste, recycling, food waste, and garden waste. Grey bins for general household waste are collected fortnightly. Black box recycling is collected every week. Green kitchen food waste caddies are also collected weekly — making York one of a relatively small number of councils offering weekly food collection. A brown garden waste bin is available as an annual subscription service, collected fortnightly from March to November.
The black box recycling collection accepts paper, cardboard, glass bottles and jars, plastic bottles, food tins, and steel and aluminium cans. Plastic bags, polystyrene, nappies, and textiles should not be placed in the recycling box.
The food waste caddy accepts all cooked and uncooked food scraps, including meat, fish, dairy, fruit and vegetable peelings, bread, and leftovers. Wrap food waste in newspaper or use compostable caddy liners — standard plastic bags must not be used.
City of York Council aims to maintain normal collection schedules on bank holidays where possible, but schedules can vary by round. To report a missed bin collection in York, call 01904 551551 or submit an online form at york.gov.uk within two working days of your scheduled collection.
