Birmingham City Council reveals a detailed schedule for bin collection changes throughout 2025, impacting all wards in the city
Birmingham: The city council has laid out a month-by-month plan for changes to bin collections in 2025. They’re shaking things up to improve waste services.
Starting in April, the council will switch from weekly to fortnightly residual bin collections. This is part of their effort to save some cash. So, if you live in Birmingham, get ready for some changes!
To help with the transition, they’re also introducing a weekly food waste collection and a new recycling bin. The idea is to reduce the amount of general waste people have.
Some folks are worried about the switch to fortnightly collections, but the council assures that food waste collections will start first. This should help ease the burden.
They’re rolling out these changes in phases, starting with areas served by the Perry Barr depot. The council wants to keep everyone in the loop about what’s happening.
It’s been a tough time for the council, dealing with financial issues and other challenges. But they’re pushing forward with these plans to make things better for everyone.
So, if you want to know when your area’s collection is changing, keep an eye on the council’s updates. They’ve got a full schedule laid out for the year!
