Wakefield bin collection time changes due to 'extreme' weather
Wakefield residents are being warned that the bin collection times are being changed this week due to the on-going heatwave.
An amber ‘extreme health’ warning is currently in place for the city with the Met Office warning of ‘hot and humid weather expected to continue through the middle of the week, with exceptionally warm temperatures both day and night.’
With high temperatures expected, Wakefield Council have announced that bin collections tomorrow (Thursday) and Friday will begin from 6am stating that ‘starting earlier helps keep teams safe from the extreme heat’.
You can support them by:
-Putting your bin out the night before or by 6am
-Making sure roads aren’t blocked
If your bin is missed, leave it out and they will collect it as soon as possible.
