WREXHAM Council has issued a calendar which can be downloaded to help residents stay up to date with bin collection days.

The new 2018/19 refuse and recycling collection calendars are available online for residents to download.

Postal versions of the new calendar will not be sent out – so if you want to stay aware of the dates, you need to sign up to the digital calendar.

There are no changes to the collection day – apart from the usual shifting schedules around the Christmas season, with residents especially advised to keep an eye on changes up until Saturday, January 12, 2019.

Green bin garden waste collections will run once a month from December, 2018 to February, 2019, with normal fortnightly collections resuming in March.

Residents who have paid for the additional garden waste collection service will receive a letter shortly regarding the changes.

All other kerbside recycling will continue to be collected weekly.

Councillor David A Bithell, lead member for environment and transport, said: “As a growing number of Wrexham residents are now online via smartphones and tablets, we want to make sure residents are aware that they can get their waste and recycling collection calendars online.

“It’s incredibly simple to do and won’t take five minutes of your time, but can save residents from missing bin collections.”
