🎉Your new waste service will start from Monday 9 November!🎉

Your information pack will be coming through your letter box soon with your collection day, a collection calendar and an information booklet.

🚛 We are still delivering bins in Spalding and Pinchbeck and you can check which areas have been delivered here Completed bin deliveries - https://www.sholland.gov.uk/article/30758/Completed-bin-deliveries

If you live in one of the completed areas, you should now have a black-lidded bin, a blue-lidded bin, a purple-lidded bin, a grey indoor kitchen food waste caddy, a roll of liners and an orange-lidded kerbside food waste caddy.

🟠 If you haven’t got a full set of bins, please let us know here https://www.sholland.gov.uk/report-bins-caddy-delivery-issue

If you live in a flat or apartment with a communal waste collection point we will provide communal bins.

If you have been exempted from having wheelie-bins, you will receive your bags before the new service starts. We are continuing to process property exemptions, so you may have bins delivered prior to a decision being made.
