Guildford Borough Council covers the Surrey town and surrounding villages including Ash, Cranleigh and the University of Surrey area. Unusually it keeps general rubbish on a weekly collection, with recycling fortnightly and a weekly food caddy alongside.
Guildford keeps refuse weekly but recycling fortnightly, plus a weekly food caddy and a paid green garden bin — an unusual mix to track. My Bin Day texts you the evening before each collection so the right containers are out by 6:30am. Just £0.99 a month, no ads, cancel anytime.
Bin setup and collection days come straight from Guildford. You can also check the council's own page at guildford.gov.uk.
Guildford collects the black general-waste bin (or black sacks) weekly, with the green recycling bin collected fortnightly and a food caddy weekly. Put all food in the larger green outdoor caddy — the silver kitchen caddy is not collected. Garden waste is a paid subscription (around £41 a bin) collected fortnightly. Surrey County Council handles disposal.
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.
Yes. We track Guildford's published schedule, including the shifts that bank holidays and seasonal changes cause, so your reminder always reflects the real collection date.
No — My Bin Day is an independent service and is not affiliated with Guildford or any council. We simply read the council's published collection schedule and send you a friendly reminder.
