Bin collections in South Shields
South Tyneside Council collects bins across South Shields and the surrounding South Tyneside area. Most households have separate collections for general (non-recyclable) waste, mixed recycling, food waste and — seasonally or by subscription — garden waste. The exact day depends on your specific address, so check your postcode above. Once you're set up, BinMinder emails you the evening before each collection.
