Recycling improvements are coming
You should by now have had a leaflet and a letter explaining the new system. In West Wiltshire the only change is that we'll be given a new blue-lidded bin in which to put cardboard and plastic bottles. Residents in the old Salisbury District will lose their weekly waste collection as of March. Those without a green bin for garden waste collection can apply for one. Anyone producing lots of garden waste can get a second green bin at a cost of £30. Black box collections continue as normal, though there may be changes to collection days.
