Parish Council
We collect refuse (general rubbish) and recycling from households on an alternating weekly schedule. This means that your refuse will be collected one week, and your recycling the next.
Collections which follow a bank holiday will usually be a day later than normal, for the rest of the week. Collections over the Christmas and New Year period are on an amended schedule.
For an address in Babergh, view the BABERGH refuse and recycling collection schedule.
If you are unsure of your refuse and recycling collection day, please email Waste Services.
We collect garden waste on a fortnightly schedule, via our chargeable subscription service.
Collections which follow a bank holiday will usually be a day later than normal, for the rest of the week. We also pause garden waste collections for two weeks during the Christmas and New Year period.
If you do not know your garden waste collection day/week, please email Waste Services to find out.
Sometimes, collections can be delayed for reasons outside of our control.
If your bin has not been emptied as scheduled, please check for service delays or report a missed collection.
