Local Community - Refuse Collection

Lyneham's day-to-day domestic waste is collected by North Wilts District Council Cleansing and Amenities Team primarily every Wednesday and Thursday.

North Wiltshire District Council are very proactive to ensure 'Recycling and Waste Minimisation' is a high priority among the community and have finalised the introduction of "Wheelie Bins" and "Black Recycle Bins" in the latter stages of 2004.

The recycling education will hopefully grow and it is envisaged that more and more people will actively recycle more of their waste products in the near future and continue to help the environment.

Collection Days
The Lyneham community is covered by two rounds. One will be a Wednesday (this takes in Dixon Road and Greenway Drive) and the other will be Thursday (taking in Argosy Road and Belfast Mead). Members of the public are asked to help the refuse teams during collection days, firstly by ensuring the bins are placed outside their properties by 7am and also ensuring that their vehicles are not parked in such a way to stop the refuse vehicles being able to get through. The collection service maybe disrupted at Christmas and Easter. Residents are notified of special collection arrangements for holidays shortly before the holiday period, details will be published in the local press and on this website.

Non 'Wheelie Bin' Properties
Homes not suitable for wheeled bins will receive letters informing them that they will be provided with black sacks carrying the council's logo, and will be allowed to put out up to three black sacks per week for collection. Properties that have been designated as not suitable for "wheelie bins" access are asked to ensure all waste bags are conveniently positioned by the roadside. Do not put the environmentally hazardous substances in the wheelie bin or waste plastic bags, please telephone the Cleansing & Amenities Team for advice.

Excess Rubbish
It is council policy to only collect rubbish which is contained within the bin. Excess rubbish will not be collected. This includes bags placed at the side of the bin and bags placed on top of the bin. Please ensure that your bin lid is closed. Bags stopping the lid from closing will be removed and left beside the bin after collection.

Exceptions may apply in the case of missed collections due to public holidays etc. However, the Council will not collect extra refuse that is solely garden waste at any time.

   

Moving House
When you move please do not take the bin with you. All properties within the district are being allocated a wheeled bin. Please make sure the bin is secured and out of sight if you plan to be away from your house for any lengthy period. If it stolen you may be liable for replacement costs.
