London Recycles

Most services are running as normal!

London’s councils, and those responsible for collecting and processing our recycling and rubbish, are working hard to make sure your service is taking place as usual, without any disruptions.

Collections from households are currently taking place as normal across London, and tips and recycling centres are also still open.

There are staff shortages though, so your bin collections might take place at different times than usual. If you put your bins out and they aren’t collected when they usually are, don’t worry, they will still be emptied! If more staff go off sick, then councils might need to reduce or suspend some services,  such as garden waste and bulky waste collections.
