Street care and cleaning

The Council is responsible for keeping the borough clean and free of litter.

We will:

  • continuously clean town centres
  • clean main roads daily
  • clean other roads once a week
  • remove accumulations of rubbish from Council land
  • empty litter bins before they are full
  • help with your locally organised clean-ups.

You can help us by:

  • being tidy with your litter and chewing gum
  • using the free refuse tips
  • having waste collection contracts for your business
  • not leaving your dog's mess for others
  • not 'fly posting' - it's untidy and illegal
  • not parking where you want us to clean.
