A: You can but we would encourage you to try the containers you have got delivered for a couple of months before requesting a change. If you request a change now we are unlikely to be able to action it for 12 weeks as we’re in a busy period.

17. Bin Delivery FAQ’s The lid on my bin is broken, can I have a new one? The lids on the wheeled bins warp while they’re stacked up prior to delivery, once the lid gets some sunlight on them they will return back to their ‘memory’. To encourage this you can put a brick on the top of the lid to weight it down.

18. Flats and communal properties Still in the process of writing to communal properties Their bins will be delivered separately to the householders bins They will be delivered after their last collection, on the w/c 27 th May or 3 rd June Old bins no longer to be used with the new service will be removed (to fit the new bins in). Many containers will be reused and therefore relabelled
