There will be no recycling or rubbish collections taking place on Bank Holiday Monday.

Collection days will change across Somerset following the bank holiday on Monday, 26 May.

All collections will move back one day.

If a resident’s usual collection day is Monday, it will now take place on Tuesday.

Tuesday collections will be moved to Wednesday, Wednesday collections to Thursday, and so on.

For those who usually have a Friday collection, their collection will be rescheduled to Saturday 31 May.

If opening on a Monday is part of the Recycling Site’s opening days, then it will be open as usual from 9am to 6pm on Bank Holiday Monday.

To help manage the increased volume of recycling, residents are encouraged to make extra space in their recycling boxes by crushing and flattening their recyclables.

This simple step can make a difference to help reduce the number of trips crews need to make to empty their vehicles.

For more information about what can be collected for recycling and to check a collection day visit the Council’s Bins, recycling and waste page.

Don’t forget the Gardening Club’s cream tea and plant sale this Monday afternoon.

Cakes and plants will be gratefully received in the church from 10.30am.

We will be there come rain or shine starting at 3pm.

Monies raised helps to pay for the monthly speakers.
