Black bin collection moves to three-weekly
New black bin collection pattern starts from 11th May.
Published: 6 May 2026
Black bins will be emptied every three weeks from Monday 11 May. During the change, some households will also receive a one‑off interim black bin collection. Recycling and food waste will still be collected weekly, and garden waste will remain fortnightly. Download the South Glos Council app to check all your collection days and set up handy reminders.
