Brown Bin Collections are Coming Back
Inverclyde Council’s fortnightly garden waste collections are resuming for the spring and summer months.
Environment & Regeneration Convener Councillor Michael McCormick said: “Every year people look forward to the brown bin collections restarting. Green fingered residents who have been tidying up their gardens over the past few months will be keen to get recycling all those weeds, leaves, twigs and hedge trimmings.”
Householders are requested to place their brown bins beside their blue bins by 7.00 am on their regular recycling collection day during the week commencing 20 March or week commencing 27 March.
Councillor McCormick is hoping for some good weather to help the gardens bloom and added: “Who knows, if we get some dry days we may be able to get several loads of garden waste recycled in time for the Easter break.”
Polythene bags and plastic items should not be placed in brown bins.
The Recycling Helpline number is 01475 715901.
