Bin day questions, answered

How do I check my bin day?

Enter your postcode above, then choose your address. The checker uses your council's published schedule to show the collections for that property. Free, no account needed.

Which bins go out this week?

Bin colours and rotations vary by council. The checker shows exactly which bin types are due on which date for your address, straight from your council's published schedule.

Why has my bin day changed this week?

Councils may change rounds for holidays, weather or service changes. Some collect as normal on bank holidays. Check the dates and any service notices from your own council.

What time should I put my bin out?

Use your council's stated set-out time and collection point. These can differ for houses, flats and shared bins. Follow the official instructions linked from your results.

Can I get a reminder before every collection?

Yes — BinMinder sends a free reminder by email or push notification the evening before every collection. Enter your postcode and add your email after checking your dates.
