Useful Information

Waste Removal Service

Waste collection is done by ODS as a commercial service - normally they collect the 4 wheelie bins every other week (odd week numbers in the calendar) on Wednesday (General Waste - Green wheelies) and Thursday mornings (Mixed recycing - Black wheelies) from Meadow Lane - the bins should be placed on the verge on the road side of the car park fence. There should also be notices in the Social Space and on each of the wheelies listing the collection days - its best to put the wheelies out on Tuesday evening of the correct week as the collections can be very early in the morning. If there is a need for a 'one of' special collection you can email ODS on [tradewaste@odsgroup.co.uk] - please copy the club treasurer (Jeff Bethray) to ensure he is aware of the extra charges we will incur. if you need to use the large blue&yellow M&M bin to hold the overflow bags make sure you have advised ODS and sent them a picture of the full set of bins to be collected so they know what they have to deal with. The key for the bins if they are locked is in the cupboard under the indoor stairs, on a hook just behind the door - big silver key for a triangular shaped keyhole.
