Never miss a Mid Suffolk bin day again

Mid Suffolk District Council covers Stowmarket, Needham Market, Eye and the surrounding Suffolk villages, sharing its waste service with Babergh. From 2026 it added glass to kerbside recycling and introduced a weekly food waste collection.

How Mid Suffolk bin collections work

With the black refuse bin, two recycling bins, a new weekly food caddy and a paid brown garden bin, Mid Suffolk's schedule takes some tracking. My Bin Day texts you the evening before each collection so the right bin goes out. Just £0.99 a month, no ads, cancel anytime. 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.

Common questions

When are bins collected in Mid Suffolk?

Mid Suffolk collects the black refuse bin and its recycling bins on alternating fortnightly weeks, with a weekly food waste caddy introduced in 2026. The blue-lidded recycling bin now takes glass alongside plastics, cans and cartons, with paper and card collected separately. Garden waste is a paid subscription (around £66 a year) collected fortnightly from a brown bin. Suffolk County Council handles disposal.

How much does this cost?

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.

Do you handle bank holidays?

Yes. We track Mid Suffolk's published schedule, including the shifts that bank holidays and seasonal changes cause, so your reminder always reflects the real collection date.

Is this an official Mid Suffolk council service?

No — My Bin Day is an independent service and is not affiliated with Mid Suffolk or any council. We simply read the council's published collection schedule and send you a friendly reminder.
