Recycling & waste collections

All refuse and recycling is collected weekly and must be out before 7am on the day of your collection.  Bank holiday collections are a day later than your normal collection day.

Your collection day is:
Wednesday: Browns Wood, Old Farm Park, Walnut Tree, Walton Park & Wavendon Gate
Thursday: Caldecotte

Please put all refuse and recycling sacks/boxes at the edge of your property closest to where the refuse/recycling vehicle passes.


What goes into each sack or bin?



Reporting dumped rubbish, abandoned shopping trollies etc
Please do so via the MK Council Waste & Recycling homepage.

Bulky household waste
Any bulky household items you are looking to dispose of - that you would typically move home with, such as beds, washing machines or sofas can be collected by MK Council free of charge. All other items such as bathroom suites incur a charge of £40 per 30 minute collection visit. This is reduced to £20 if you are receipt of certain benefits.
