Recycling and waste collection services set to change
21 May 2012 14:47:09
Recycling and waste collection services within East Ayrshire are set to change next week.
All residents will receive a letter, leaflet and bin vinyl this week which will outline the changes to the collection routes which will come into force on Monday 28 May. The changes will not affect every resident but about half will see a change to their normal collection day and could also see a change to the colour of bin being presented.
Councillor Bobby McDill, Spokesperson for Delivering Community Regeneration said: “The Council has always been at the forefront of recycling in Scotland and together we have surpassed the targets set by the Scottish Government. Despite our success we continue to seek improvement and efficiencies and have fully reviewed the kerbside recycling service. This has resulted in the changes which will be introduced from next Monday.
“Please read your leaflet carefully and attach the vinyl, enclosed with your letter, to one of your bins – it provides detailed information on which bin to put out and when. I am sure that we can rely on your continued support and I would like to thank you for helping us to stay at the forefront of recycling nationally.”
If you have any concerns or require any further information please consult our website www.east-ayrshire.gov.uk or call 01563 554054.
