BIN collections will be changing in Wiltshire later this month - and residents are reminded to check their new collection days.

From Monday, February 28, nearly all general household waste collections days will change in Wiltshire.

There will be no change to any recycling or garden waste collections, which will still take place on their usual day.

All residents should have received a letter to let them know about their new waste collection day.

The letter will let you know what your new collection day is and when you should put your bin out.

They’ll also have a hanger placed on their general household waste bin that will give them more information.

Residents are being asked to please leave your bin out by 7am on your new collection day, as the time your waste will be collected may also change.

The council says the changes will enable it to make its rounds more efficient, reducing the number of collection vehicles used, which will reduce carbon emissions and save more than £1.9m over five years.
