We collect residential recycling in specific areas of the city under contract with the City of York Council. Please check our street lists to see if your property is within our collection area, if so we can provide a weekly collection of materials and a recycling container. If you are not on our street list please contact City of York Council. Please put your recycling out weekly no matter the volume, small frequent amounts are better than few, bulky collections. If you’d like to discuss any aspect of your collection please contact us.

Collection Days
Please put your recycling out no later than 8 am on your collection day. If you put out later than this we cannot guarantee we will be able to collect your recycling. We collect every week and on all bank holidays, however, our service does change around Christmas and New Years. Please check the Special Notices box for information on those changes. To check your collection day please see the streets list.
Collections occur between 8am and 4pm Monday to Friday, we cannot guarantee what time your collection will occur, nor are we able to do the routes in the same way each week. Please ensure your recycling is out every week no later than 8am. Factors outside of our control can mean we have to change our route at very short notice, putting it out early each week will ensure you do not miss your collection if we have to do things differently one week.
