Severe winter weather can sometimes cause disruptions to our household waste and recycling collections.
Bad weather can also affect the opening times of our household waste recycling centres:
Waste collections in severe weather
If we're unable to collect your waste due to severe winter weather, we'll:
- collect your waste on your next scheduled waste or recycling collection day
- make allowances for extra waste at your next collection
Our waste collection updates page shows details of any known service issues and missed collections.
See details of how we deal with missed waste collections.
If we've been unable to collect your waste, you can also:
- take your waste to Hazel Court HWRC or Towthorpe/Strensall HWRC, but check they're open before travelling
- check for updates via Facebook and Twitter or on local radio stations
