Bath and North East Somerset Council have said that recycling collections across the Bath area continue to be disrupted, following staff at their recycling contractor Kier beginning industrial action in the form of an overtime ban.
As a result of this, if you were due to have your recycling collected on Wednesday 6th January (including those re-scheduled from Tuesday 5th January) there may be some disruption to your recycling and food waste collections.
If your recycling and food waste was scheduled for Wednesday 6th January and has not been collected, the Council are advising residents to put it back out for collection today (Thursday 7th January).
B&NES Council’s recycling centres at Keynsham, Old Welton and Bath are open Monday – Friday, 8am – 4.15pm.
Facilities to recycle all of the materials collected as part of the kerbside recycling collections, including food waste are available at all three sites.
In a statement, B&NES Council said: “On behalf of our contractor we apologise sincerely for any inconvenience caused.”
