What you can put in your black, blue and green bin
National lockdown: please stay at home
Warrington is subject to the current national lockdown restrictions - please stay at home. For more more information about what this means, visit our coronavirus web pages.
With more than 85,000 households in Warrington we have a lot of bins to empty! To help us do this as efficiently and safely as possible, make sure:
- Place your wheelie bin out on your normal collection day, but not before 5:00 pm the day before.
- All rubbish must be inside the correct wheelie bin with the lid closed.
- Don’t leave your wheelie bin in a position that will block the way for others.
- Return your wheelie bin to your property as soon as possible after collection, but no later than midnight the same day.
- Glass, plastic bottles, cans, paper and cardboard must be placed loosely in the correct recycling wheelie bin provided for this purpose, for collection.
- Label your bins with your house number.
You’re responsible for returning and storing your allocated wheelie bins.
Things you can take to the tip
You can take things you no longer need to one of our community recycling centres. Before you go, check their opening times, what items they accept and whether you may need a permit:
Things you can take to a recycling bank
There are local recycling points, often on supermarket or pub car parks, where you can take some things to be recycled. Before you go, check where they are, when they’re open and what you can take.
Batteries
Never put batteries in your black, or any other, bin – they can cause a fire. You can take batteries to a community recycling centre, to your local Livewire library, or to Contact Warrington.
