Council confirms green bin collection dates

5

WARRINGTON Borough Council has confirmed two green bin collection dates following the recent delays caused by a near three-month bin strike.

Starting next week, Monday, January, 8, the council has confirmed that two garden waste collections for 2023 subscribers will begin:

Your green bin will be emptied on the same day as your blue bin for the next two collections.

If you have a property with different days for Green and Blue bin collections, the council will contact you before the end of the week to confirm collection dates.

During a recent interview with Warrington Worldwide the council’s Chief Executive Prof. Steven Broomhead denied there had been “dither and delay” from the council in resolving the bin strike, saying it was the Unite Union who had dithered and delayed by not attending internal meetings at the council during a “war of words.”

He also confirmed there would be no refunds to council taxpayers, but there would be two green bin collections in the new year and next year’s pricing would reflect this year’s issues.
