Once again, we are grateful to Councillors Deirdre Alden and Matt Bennett for organising these mobile collections.
Because of the increased usage of the Mobile Household Waste Centres during the strike, the Council has decided to currently only locate them on large car park sites. Full instructions are here.
The next visit of the Mobile Household Waste Collection Service will be at Osler St (car park, parallel with Edgbaston Reservoir), North Edgbaston B16 9EU on Wednesday March 18th from 7.30am to 12.30pm.
Household waste, garden waste and recycling can all be taken along, but please note the recycling will not be recycled. It will all go in the same wagon.
No vans allowed.
