Report a litter bin issue

We provide street litter bins in our town centres and on busy roads. We check how much litter is in our bins and empty them more often when it's necessary. 

You can tell us if you have seen an overflowing or damaged litter bin.

You can also tell us if you want to recommend a location for new litter bins.

Reporting a litter bin issue

To report a litter bin issue, tell us:

  • Where the bin is (street name and nearest landmark or postcode)
  • What is wrong (too full, broken, missing)
  • Add a photo if you can

You can put dog waste put in any litter bin.

If there is no bin nearby, bag it and take it home.

Not picking up after your dog can lead to a fine.
