Earlier bin collections - week commencing 22 June 2026

Due to the high temperatures, our bin crews will be starting collections earlier than usual to help keep them safe in the heat. Please make sure your bins are out the night before, as collections will take place from 5am for the rest of this week. Thank you for helping our crews to work safely during the hot weather.

Request bins, bags, boxes and caddies

You can request new bins and recycling containers through MyDudley.

You can request:

  • a black refuse bin for general waste
  • a blue wheeled bin for mixed recycling, for example: cans, plastic, glass, cartons
  • a blue bag for recycling paper, card and cardboard
  • a green bag or black box for recycling
  • a kerbside food caddy and a smaller kitchen food caddy
  • a green waste bag or green bin for garden waste collection

You can only order the same type of bins or bags you usually have at your property. For example, if you usually have a blue bin and blue bag, you cannot order green bags and black boxes.

We will not reimburse for lost or damaged bags and boxes if they are a non-council issue.

You can also take your recycling to our recycling points across the borough.

If you have any further issues, please report them via MyDudley or contact Dudley Council Plus.

Please use our 'Order a bin' form to request new or replacement bins, bags or boxes:

If you require a larger bin, you can apply for a paid replacement using the form below. Please note that larger bins are subject to criteria, available on the form.
