Changes to Bank Holiday bin collections
Published: 17 May 2022
Bin collections in Exeter will now take place on newly rescheduled dates following the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee Bank Holiday weekend next month.
The changed dates are to allow the crews to enjoy a full four-day break for the special occasion.
Residents are advised to familiarise themselves with the new ‘catch-up’ dates following the Bank Holiday weekend, as these are different to the ones originally advertised on the City Council website.
The new dates are as follows:
| Bins due: | Will now be collected: |
| Thursday 2 June | Monday 6 June |
| Friday 3 June | Tuesday 7 June |
| Monday 6 June | Wednesday 8 June |
| Tuesday 7 June | Thursday 9 June |
| Wednesday 8 June | Friday 10 June |
| Thursday 9 June | Saturday 11 June |
| Friday 10 June | Monday 13 June |
| Monday 13 June | Tuesday 14 June |
| Tuesday 14 June | Wednesday 15 June |
| Wednesday 15 June | Thursday 16 June |
| Thursday 16 June | Friday 17 June |
| Friday 17 June | Saturday 18 June |
All collections will return to normal on Monday 20 June.
A Council spokesman said: “We have changed the dates to allow our collection crews, who have worked flat-out over the last few years, often under relentless pressure due to staffing during the pandemic, the opportunity to enjoy a full four day break that they often miss out on.”
