Newark and Sherwood District Council covers Newark-on-Trent, Southwell, Ollerton and the surrounding Nottinghamshire villages. Refuse and recycling alternate fortnightly, glass is collected separately in a teal-lidded bin, and a food waste pilot began in 2026.
With the black and recycling bins alternating fortnightly, a separate glass bin, a paid garden bin and food waste arriving, Newark and Sherwood's schedule takes some tracking. My Bin Day texts you the evening before each collection. 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.
Bin setup and collection days come straight from Newark & Sherwood. You can also check the council's own page at newark-sherwooddc.gov.uk.
Newark and Sherwood collects the black rubbish bin and the silver recycling bin on alternating fortnightly weeks, with glass collected separately in a teal-lidded bin every eight weeks. Garden waste is a paid subscription (around £37 a year) collected fortnightly from March to November and monthly December to February. A weekly food waste pilot began in September 2026 ahead of a county-wide rollout in October 2027. Nottinghamshire County Council handles disposal.
