Residents across Canvey Island should prepare for changes to their waste collection service during the week of 25 May 2026. Castle Point Borough Council has announced that all household bin collections will be delayed by one day due to the Spring Bank Holiday on Monday 25 May.
The adjustment applies to all households in the borough, including those on Canvey Island. Under the temporary change, each collection day throughout that week will shift forward by 24 hours. For example, collections usually occurring on Monday will take place on Tuesday, while those typically set for Friday will move to Saturday.
Normal bin collection services are expected to resume from Monday 1 June 2026. The council confirms this shift is a routine measure taken to manage services during bank holiday weeks.
Residents who experience issues with their service during this period can report a missed collection by emailing [email protected] or by calling the council on 01268 882200. More information regarding local services can be found on the official council website.
