Updates

  • Thank you for reporting litter or weeds on a street.

    If litter is widespread, we aim to clear it within 24 hours of your report. It may take longer if we need specialist equipment.
    Reports of weeds or leaves will help us to plan our seasonal work. Weeds are normally cleared in spring, summer and early autumn. Leaves are only cleared once they have broken down.

    Did you know…?
    Our street cleaning teams remove over 130 tonnes of litter and dumped waste each month
