SWANSEA-661 Mobile issue - bullet points not wrapping
Household rubbish is collected from the kerbside in a black bag. Black bags are for non-recyclable waste only.
Some collection crews will be starting their rounds earlier than usual during the current circumstances. Please therefore ensure that all recycling and black bags are placed out on the kerbside ready for collection by 6.00am on your collection day. Coronavirus and waste collections update
It is a legal requirement for households in Swansea to recycle. Failure to recycle may lead to a fixed penalty notice.
To ensure your bags are collected:

- each household is allowed to put out a maximum of 3 black bags every fortnight
- put your bags out for collection between 7.00pm on the evening before your collection and 7.00am on the morning of your collection day
- use our recycling and rubbish collection search to find out what day we collect your bags
- wrap up sharp objects eg broken glass
- make sure your refuse sack is not too heavy (under 15kg)
- use black bags that are no larger than 80 litres
