WITH the long Easter weekend to look forward to, the council has issued information on recycling and refuse collections for over the Bank Holiday period.

Collections will run as normal on the Good Friday Bank Holiday, March 29, but there will be no collections on Easter Monday, April 1.

That week’s services will run one day behind, so if your usual collection would be on Monday, April 1, it will instead be on Tuesday, April 2, and so on, up to and including Saturday, April 6.
