Doncaster runs a black bin for rubbish and a blue bin for mixed recycling, but glass is kept separate in a small green box — and there's a green wheelie bin on top of that for garden waste. Four containers, and the green box for glass is the one newcomers forget they have.
The City of Doncaster Council collects the black bin (non-recyclable general waste) and the blue bin (mixed recycling — paper, card, plastic bottles, pots, tubs and trays, cans and cartons) on alternating weeks. The green box (glass bottles and jars) is collected fortnightly on the same day as your blue bin. The green wheelie bin (garden waste only) is collected fortnightly between March and the end of November. Put all containers out before 7am on collection day.
Bin setup and collection days come straight from Doncaster. You can also check the council's own page at doncaster.gov.uk.
Doncaster collects the black (general waste) and blue (mixed recycling) bins on alternating weeks, the green box (glass) fortnightly alongside the blue bin, and the green garden bin fortnightly from March to November. Your exact day depends on your address — My Bin Day reads your council schedule and texts you the evening before each collection so you always know which container is due.
My Bin Day is 99p a month — less than a coffee a year. Cancel any time by replying STOP to a reminder and you won't be charged again.
