Green Wheelie Bins
- Please put non-recyclable waste in your
green wheeled bin
- A 240 litre green wheelie bin is provided as
standard. Smaller 140 litre bins are available on request.
- Properties unsuitable for wheelie bins or
where residents require assistance (due to medical conditions, age etc)
will be provided with 52 black liners per year for residual refuse
and 26 bio-degradable liners for garden waste. Properties on
liners may be provided with a green wheelie bin for storage of the
black liners containing non-recyclable waste.
We undertake random monitoring of waste
collection services throughout the district. Occasionally we may
come across a property where there are two standard 240 ltr.
bins. In these circumstances, we will usually contact the occupier
in writing, giving them notice that, except in exceptional
circumstances, we will remove the second bin.
Extra Waste
- Only waste contained in the wheeled bin will
be collected. Any extra bags will be either returned to the
property or placed in the wheeled bin after it has been
emptied
- Properties with five or more permanent
occupants who find they frequently have extra refuse may (at the
discretion of the Streetscene Manager and subject to investigation)
be issued with an additional 140 litre bin for non-recyclable
waste. Click here to download the Additional Bin Request
Form.
- Residents who experience bin capacity
problems, due to a member of the household producing non-hazardous
medical waste will be issued with an additional 140 litre bin for
residual refuse at the discretion of the Streetscene Manager.

Who owns the equipment?
Containers remain the property of Ryedale District Council and must
be left at the property when residents move. Residents moving into
a previously occupied property should ensure that all containers
have been left. Containers for new properties will normally be
delivered within five working days. We will deliver
information on waste minimisation and recycling to new
properties.
What day is my bin collected?
We
have an online calendar, where you can find your bin
collection day, the dates of collection and details of what
will be collected (refuse or recycling).
There is the option to search by your postcode
on our interactive map or by zooming in on the map to find your
property. Clicking on your property will show your waste collection
day and then follow the link to your Waste Collection Calendar. The
calendar shows the materials collected each week and any changes to
your collection day, such as after Bank Holidays.
If you have queries or require any further
information please email Streetscene or
telephone 01653 600666.
