Our automatic recycling bag delivery scheme is the easiest way for residents to access free dry, mixed recycling bags and food caddy liners. It's also the most efficient and cost-effective method for our council to deliver bags.
With our free scheme, getting your recycling bags couldn't be easier.
Simply sign up using our online form and we'll do the rest.
When will deliveries be made?
Zoned deliveries by ward take place once a year. This cuts annual deliveries by more than 150,000, significantly lowering vehicle emissions and supporting our goal of becoming carbon neutral by 2030.
