Wheelie bin roadshow for residents

Date: Thu 28 Apr 2016
Time: 11.30am - 5pm
Description:
Ealing Council is taking its wheelie bins on the road - offering local people advice and information on the new recycling and refuse service.

Residents can visit the stall to take a look at the new wheelie bins, talk to council officers about how the new service will work and get expert advice on how to recycle more.

The majority of the borough will move to a new recycling and rubbish collection system from Monday, 6 June 2016. Rubbish and recycling will be collected from wheelie bins on alternate weeks, rubbish one week and recycling the next. Food waste will continue to be collected weekly.

Personalised letters are being sent to 95,000 properties in the borough with information on how the new service will work. The council has also set up a Facebook page to keep residents informed and give useful tips on how to recycle more. Wheelie bins will start to be delivered to households in May 2016.

Keith Townsend, executive director for environment and customer services, said: “I know that a lot of residents want to do the right thing and recycle more and, based on the experiences of other London boroughs, the move to wheelie bins should help to achieve this. We are committed to keeping residents up to date about the upcoming changes and these roadshows will help to keep residents informed. I hope that local people will pop along on one of the dates, say hello and see the wheelies for themselves.”
