East Hampshire catches people out: the green bin here is your general rubbish, not recycling. Recycling goes in a black bin, glass is collected separately in a box, and a weekly food waste service is arriving in autumn 2026.
East Hampshire District Council (with contractor Norse) collects the green bin (general non-recyclable waste) and the black bin (mixed dry recycling — paper, cardboard, plastic bottles, tins, cans and empty aerosols) on alternating fortnightly weeks. Glass bottles and jars are collected separately in a box, fortnightly at the kerbside. Garden waste goes in a brown bin on a paid subscription. A weekly food waste collection is planned to launch in October 2026, using a 5-litre kitchen caddy and an outdoor caddy — until then food waste goes in the green refuse bin. This information was correct at the time of writing; the council has proposals to change its collection schedule currently under review, so your service may be updated in future. Note the local quirk: green is your general rubbish here, not recycling. Present bins by 7am. Waste is disposed of via Hampshire County Council.
Bin setup and collection days come straight from East Hampshire. You can also check the council's own page at easthants.gov.uk.
