Rubbish and Recycling

FAQ - New Waste and Recycling Collections


All the information you may or may not wish to know about weekly recycling and fortnightly rubbish, green waste and plastic bottles collection can be found on the Council website here:

One catch/con concerning plastic bottles:


Plastic bottles will be collected only if contained in a Swindon Borough Council clear plastic sack. They will be collected fortnightly on the same day as your garden waste.

The first four sacks will be provided free by the Council. A small charge of 20p will be made for additional sacks. This is to ensure that bags are collected full.

Four sacks only- free?? 20p charge for extra sacks will only discourage people from recycling plastics.

So will they fine people if they send their plastic bottles to land-fill?
