Garden Waste collections in East Hants – week commencing 13 September

Due to the continued national shortage of HGV drivers, which is currently also impacting on Norse South East there will be a short-term prioritisation of rubbish and recycling collections within the district this week.

Unfortunately this may mean that your usual garden waste collection day could be disrupted, and we would like to apologise in advance for the inconvenience it may cause you.   

We would ask that you leave your bin out, in the event of drivers becoming available, some collections could take place in the days to come.

Norse South East and EHDC are working together to do everything they can to mitigate the impact to residents of the current HGV driver shortages and really appreciate your continued patience. Please do not report your garden waste bins as missed at the moment.  We will continue to update you via our website www.easthants.gov.uk/garden-waste and email updates.
