Small electricals

Small electrical items are collected weekly as part of our '3 services in 1' collection (food waste, textiles and small electricals). 

Find your collection day or report a missed bin

On your collection day, make sure small electrical items are:

• tied up in a standard sized carrier bags (ideally labelled to show they contain electricals)
• put out kerbside by 6am (next to your food waste bin)
• without batteries and bulbs (leave plugs or cables attached)

Please remember this is a small electrical collection. Items that cannot be tied inside a standard sized carrier bag will not be collected. This includes larger kitchen appliances and pieces of home office equipment such as printers.
