Residents are advised that weekly food waste collections will begin from Monday, 30 March across the Borough. Collections will take place on the same day as residents’ black and orange-lidded bins, with food waste to be presented at the same collection point. The Borough Council is continuing to deliver food waste kitchen caddies and outdoor bins throughout this week. Any residents who have not yet received their containers can report a missed delivery or request a replacement using the following link: https://www.bedford.gov.uk/bins-and-recycling/household-bins-and-recycling/replace-damaged-or-missing-bins-and-food-caddies For those who are unable to complete the form online, assistance is available via the Customer Services team: www.bedford.gov.uk/ContactUs Residents can find further information, including frequently asked questions, at: www.bedford.gov.uk/FoodWaste For residents living in flats, communal food waste bins and external collection points are being installed this week. Details of public collection point locations can be found within the ‘About the new service’ section of the Food Waste webpage, under “How will food waste collections work if I live in a flat?”. Please note that some collection points may be located on private land, and managing agents will provide details directly to residents where applicable.
