Check your collection dates for your waste and recycling
You can now view all bin collection days across the districts in one calendar.
Find your bin collection day
Use the waste calendar to select the address you would like to view collection information for. You can also download and print your bin calendar.
There may be some changes to your usual garden waste collection day if you live in the former Copeland or Allerdale areas.
When you are preparing your bins and containers for collection, please help us by:
- putting your waste and recycling out to be emptied before 7am on the day of your collection (6.30am in the former Allerdale area)
- not overloading the bin
- not placing excess waste by the side of the bin
- only putting your bin out if it is at least a third full
- putting your waste in the correct bin or container and put out for collection on the correct date
If there are gale force winds, please consider taking your recycling to a Household Waste Recycling Centre (HWRC) or a local recycling site instead.
