Recycling and Waste Update

Jun 23, 2021 | News

This is an update from South Hams District Council on the recycling collection service which is currently being provided.
You will see that –  food waste needs to go into the grey bin until further notice.
They are also unable to take batteries or printer cartridges right now.
Recycling was collected throughout the village today (Wednesday 23 June). I don’t know about the rest of the parish yet.
If you have been missed please report to SHDC – https://southhams.fccenvironment.co.uk/missedcollection
In addition, our South Hams District Councillor John McKay has also set up a form that you can use to report any issues to him: https://mckay.sh/waste/
He will use the information to help him track issues.
