No change to holiday bin collections

Powys County Council has reiterated its new policy of keeping its bin collections the same over Bank Holiday weekends.

It means all collections that fall on this bank holiday weekend will no longer be disrupted and will be collected as usual.

Councillor John Powell, Cabinet Member for Environment and Sustainability, said: “The council reviewed its working arrangements for bank holidays and is pleased to confirm that there will be no change to collection days over the May bank holiday.

“This consistent approach will make it less confusing for residents and traders whilst providing for a more efficient collection service.”

Recycling and rubbish bins should be out for collection by 7.30am.
