Collections will usually run one day late during the week after each Bank Holiday using the following Saturday to complete the catch-up. Normal collection schedules resume as of the week after each of these periods.

Collection schedules around Christmas and Easter, where there are several Bank Holidays in quick succession, may differ from this.

Log in or sign up to myCrawley for details of your next collection dates and to download your collection calendar for the year ahead. 

Recycling and rubbish collections will change over Christmas and New Year. See the table below for collections over the holiday period. Please note some collections will be collected a day earlier than normal in the run up to Christmas.

To check if your recycling collection is week one or week two, please log in to my.crawley.gov.uk or call 01293 438772.

Collections may not be made at the usual time of day during the holiday period, so please ensure your recycling and rubbish bin(s) are placed out at the edge of your property, not blocking pavements, by 7.30am on your collection day, and are clearly visible. For Saturday 20th December only, the crews will start at 6.30am.

Recycling and rubbish collections return to normal from Monday 12 January. 

If you are subscribed to the GREENbin garden waste collection service, there will be no collections from Monday 22 December to Friday 2 January inclusive. Normal garden waste collections will resume from Monday 5 January.

Over bank holidays and Christmas, we will take one additional average-sized sack or bag of rubbish for every day your collection is delayed. For example, if your collection day is usually a Monday and we collect your waste the following day on Tuesday, you can place one additional bag out for collection.
