Ceredigion County Council

Waste collections on Bank Holiday Mondays will change in Ceredigion.

With a view of providing residents with the best possible service, we are changing waste collection arrangements on Bank Holiday Mondays from Easter 2023.

Over the Easter Bank Holidays we will be endeavouring to provide waste collections as follows:

Residents are asked to share this information as widely as possible with neighbours, family, friends and communities across Ceredigion who may be affected.

We are intending to adopt this approach for the other Bank Holiday Mondays in May and August which will see the collections due on the Bank Holiday Mondays being collected on the Saturdays before.

Councillor Keith Henson, Cabinet Member for Highways and Environmental Services and Carbon Management said: “We continually review our approach to the delivery of our services with a view of providing the best possible level of service to the public with the resources that are available to us. Waste collections on Bank Holidays have historically proved to be problematic and presented some challenges.

“During 2023 our intention is to bring forward collections scheduled for Bank Holiday Mondays to the Saturday before. This will hopefully give us a better chance of securing the resources we need to deliver the services and provides an opportunity to recover soon after if we are not able to provide the collection on the scheduled day. We will be making efforts to share the information as widely as possible and, as always as part of Caru Ceredigion, would like to sincerely thank the public for their ongoing understanding and support.”
