Your bins will usually be delivered within 5-10 working days of the contract start date. If there is a delay, you will be notified by our operations team.
All trade waste customers are billed at the beginning of each month for the upcoming calendar month, as billing is in advance. Dependant when your contract was started, your initial payment may be slightly higher as it may include a number of days from the previous month (eg if you signed on the 15th, you would be billed for the remainder of this month, plus the next month. This will revert to the stated cost on the contract from month two.

Scheduled collection days are subject to change dependant on route alteration, and unforeseen circumstances such as traffic issues. Should this be the case with your collection, you will be notified as soon as possible by our Customer Service Team.
The night before your scheduled collection date you need to ensure the bins are placed in an easily accessible area for your driver, with no blocked access for your collection to be completed. Should this not be the case, you will need to contact customer services to rearrange the collection.
