Warrington Borough Council provides a black bin for non-recyclable household waste. This bin is collected once every week. One 240L bin is provided as standard to each property. 

Please note: Your black bin must be presented with a flat
lid. No excess bags will be collected. 

Please think carefully about what you are throwing away,
can it be reused or recycled?
