Slough’s bin collections will shift by one day throughout the week of the summer bank holiday at the end of August.
All wheelie bins—grey refuse, red recycling, and green garden waste—along with food waste collections will move to the following day. The changes begin on Monday 31 August, when collections will be made on Tuesday 1 September. The schedule then rolls forward through the week, with Friday 4 September collections taking place on Saturday 5 September.
Residents are advised to check the specific day for their address, as grey, red, and green bins are collected fortnightly on alternating weeks. The Waste and Recycling Portal at waste.slough.gov.uk can confirm which containers are due and when they will be emptied.
The council has also produced a video guide to help people find their bin dates online.
