Bin collections

Residents who are due to have brown bins emptied on Friday 22 November should leave these out for collection as normal. If we are unable to empty your brown bin, we will attempt to return next week. For more information, visit our Missed bins page.

Product safety

The law says that all new and second-hand products sold by businesses must be safe and safe if used properly. We check products sold are safe by:

advising businesses
inspecting shops and factories
testing samples of different goods
investigating consumer complaints
checking recalled products have been removed from sale.

Where can I get more information?

Product safety guidance has been published by the Chartered Trading Standards Institute.
