Attention Somerset: Waste Collections on Bank Holiday Monday 1st May!
In a change from usual Bank Holiday arrangements, waste collections will take place on Bank Holiday Monday, 1st May.
If your recycling and/or refuse is usually collected on a Monday, that will be the case on Monday 1st May. Collections will be on normal scheduled days for the rest of that week.
In a return to the usual arrangements, there will be no collections on Bank Holiday Monday 8th May, and collections will be one day later for the rest of that week.
These arrangements will avoid crews having to work back-to-back Saturdays and gives them the chance to get involved in celebrations over the special Bank Holiday weekend.
All 16 recycling sites will be open as usual at weekends, 9.00am to 4.00pm.
And, if opening Mondays is part of their normal opening pattern, they will be open on both Bank Holiday Mondays (1st May and 8th May), from 9.00am to 6.00pm.
