COTSWOLD District Council is reminding residents that refuse and recycling collections due on the Monday August 28 public holiday will be taking place as usual.

The council will only make changes to Christmas collection schedules this year.

Public holiday celebrations always generate a lot of additional waste and the council are encouraging everyone to recycle as much as possible.

Ubico collect recycling at the kerbside every fortnight, and recycling ‘bring banks’ are also available across the district.
