Suspension of Garden Waste Collections

No Green Bin collection in Crosspool tomorrow Tuesday 30th July

A temporary suspension of garden waste collections from July 29 to August 11 is a measure taken to ensure the prioritisation of other essential waste and recycling bin collections.

As a form of compensation for this interruption, an additional garden waste bin collection will be scheduled for the end of November. This ensures that residents will receive the full number of collections as outlined in the terms and conditions of the service. It’s a balanced approach to maintaining service quality while adapting to operational demands.

Blue bins and boxes weren't emptied on some Crosspool roads on Monday — Blue bins and boxes weren’t emptied on some Crosspool roads on Monday

If your blue bin and box didn’t get emptied yesterday then it should be dealt with today, according to Veolia.

Problems with collection lorries on Monday meant that around 12 roads in our area didn’t have their recycling collected. If you keep your bin and box left out today they should get emptied.

Sheffield residents recently moved to fortnightly collections, alternating between black wheelie bins one week and blue recycling bins/boxes the other.
