Allerdale Borough Council is reminding residents of changes to bin collections and opening hours due to the May bank holiday.
With effect from Monday 27 May 2019, bins will be collected one day later throughout the week – with those which would normally be collected on the Friday (31 May) collected on the Saturday (1 June) instead. Collections will be back to normal from the following week, commencing Monday 3 June 2019.
More information is available by visiting the council’s bin collection calendar page at www.allerdale.gov.uk/bincollections, where residents can check bin collection dates, report a missed collection, and check for anything that could affect collections.
