DON'T MISS OUT: AMENDED BRIGG BIN COLLECTION FOR CHRISTMAS WEEK



Don't miss your Christmas bin collections this year, Brigg people are being told by North Lincolnshire Council.
There's an important change to note this week... Brigg households will have their bins emptied A DAY LATER.
So instead of collections taking place tomorrow (Tuesday) they will be carried out on WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 29.
Crews will be emptying general waste wheelie bins, blue recycling boxes filled with newspapers and magazines, and green kerbside boxes containing cans, glass and clean aluminium foil.
"It can be hard to keep track of the days over the festive period," the authority says, "and with three bank holidays, bin and box collection dates will be changing this year.
"If you don’t have a collection calendar, check your collection dates on the North Lincolnshire Council website (USE THIS LINK) or call the contact centre on 01724 297000.
"From now until the end of February, winter opening times are in effect at all eight Household Recycling Centres across North Lincolnshire."
The council would like local people to recycle as much as possible, especially as more stuff is generated at this time of year.
Greetings cards without glitter can be recycled in your burgundy bin or at the Household Recycling Centres. If a card has glitter on, place it in the general waste bin.
You can recycle your old Christmas lights in a standard supermarket carrier bag "and present along with your kerbside boxes," the council says.
Clean aluminium foil can be recycled in your green box.
Wrapping paper can be recycled in your blue box or at one of the paper banks across the area, but avoid any wrapping paper which is laminated or is not made from paper.
