Rubbish, recycling and dog bins

Swindon Borough Council publishes details of all wheelie bin, garden waste and recycling box collections on their website. Just enter your postcode!

Check missed waste or recycling collections online

We currently successfully complete 99.9% of our waste and recycling collections. However, there are occasions where our crews can’t complete a round due to operational issues, or mistakenly miss a collection. If a collection is not completed on the day it is due to be, please visit our missed collections webpage at the end of the working day to find out when our crews will be back to collect it. If a street or area is not listed please advise residents to report it as a missed collection and the crews will be back asap.

They also publish a page listing all of their household waste recycling centres – complete with maps.

The Parish Council provides a total of 16 bins for dog owners to deposit waste from their pets. The following maps show the approximate location of these bins:
