Harrow collects recycling and food waste weekly, with general rubbish and garden waste on alternating fortnights. General waste is a green or grey bin, a blue bin takes mixed recycling, food goes in a small black caddy, and garden waste is a paid brown bin.
The London Borough of Harrow collects the green or grey bin (general, non-recyclable household waste) and the brown garden waste bin on alternating fortnightly weeks (garden waste is a paid subscription). The blue recycling bin (paper, card, glass bottles and jars, plastic bottles, pots, tubs and trays, tins, cans, aerosols, clean foil and cartons — washed and loose) is collected fortnightly. The black food waste caddy is collected weekly — use bio bags or newspaper, never plastic bags. Present bins by 6am on collection day.
Bin setup and collection days come straight from Harrow. You can also check the council's own page at harrow.gov.uk.
Harrow collects the blue (mixed recycling) bin fortnightly and the black food caddy weekly, with the green/grey (general waste) bin and the paid brown garden bin on alternating fortnights. My Bin Day reads your council schedule and texts you the evening before each collection so you always know which bin is due.
