Christmas and New Year Waste Collection Arrangements
Please find below some information regarding waste collections during Christmas and New Year and some additional information which I hope you will find useful
During the Christmas and New Year period waste collection days will change which can be seen in the table below.
Residents can also download a collection calendar from www.huntingdonshire.gov.uk/bins
| Scheduled Day of Collection | Revised Day of Collection |
| Monday 19 December | Saturday 17 December |
| Tuesday 20 December | Monday 19 December |
| Wednesday 21 December | Tuesday 20 December |
| Thursday 22 December | Wednesday 21 December |
| Friday 23 December | Thursday 22 December |
| Monday 26 December | Friday 23 December |
There are no further amendments to collections days after Monday 26 December.
Our collection crews will be working on the following Bank Holiday’s – Tuesday 27th December and Monday 2 January.
The household recycling centres will close at 1pm on Christmas Eve and will be closed on Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year’s Day. Visit www.cambridgeshire.gov.uk for more information.
Christmas Tree Recycling
Real trees can be placed by the side of the garden bin on collection day. If the tree is bigger than the bin we ask that it is chopped in half.
The Household Recycling Centres will also take Christmas trees.
We will be informing residents of these changes via a bin hanger (a copy is attached for your records) which will be placed on grey bins over the next two weeks. We will also be posting on our social media sites too. (Facebook – Huntingdonshire Recycles, Twitter – HDC Recycles)
