North East Derbyshire collects the black general-waste bin and the burgundy recycling bin on alternating fortnightly weeks, with a weekly food waste caddy introduced on 30 March 2026. The burgundy bin takes plastics, tins, bottles, paper, card and textiles. Garden waste goes in a green bin (one free, extras charged) collected fortnightly. Derbyshire 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.

Do you handle bank holidays?

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