General residential waste and recycling collections
If you are receiving our general residential waste and collection service’s you can use the alphabetical list of streets provided to determine a residential properties collection schedule based on its location within the borough. If you reside in a house or you are receiving our ‘bag-only’ residential waste and recycling services you can also view your collection schedule by using our postcode lookup form to view a properties collection schedule. To determine what type of waste will be collected and when we plan to next visit the property.
To find out more about our standard waste and recycling service, and the different types of services used to collect residential waste from our residents go to: Your bins | Household waste and recycling | Thurrock Council.
As part of our standard residential waste and recycling service, we will collect household waste and recycling green/grey wheeled bins and blue wheeled bins every 2 weeks on alternate weeks. If you've signed-up for garden waste collections, we will collect your brown wheeled bin on the same week as your blue bin. Food bins are collected every week.
The bins we collect from your street each week will depend on whether it is a 'Round A' or 'Round B' street. To check 'Round A' and 'Round B' dates, use the table below or go to bin collection weeks.
You can check the normal collection day for any street and whether it's a 'Round A' or 'Round B' street by selecting the first letter of the street name:
