Future household recycling and waste / bin collection services

Overview

Leicester City Council is considering how waste and recycling collections from households should work in future.

Nothing is going to change for a while. However, we need to start thinking about it now, as there are new laws being introduced by the Government in the next few years, and our recycling and waste arrangements with Biffa end in May 2028. 

This means in future, there will be changes to how the council – and you – manage your waste and recycling.

Our aim is to make sure that your bin collection services continue to be simple to use, reliable and cost effective, while also protecting our environment.
