North Kesteven District Council covers Sleaford, North Hykeham and a wide network of Lincolnshire villages. It uses the distinctive Lincolnshire purple-lidded bin to keep paper and card separate. Refuse and recycling alternate fortnightly, with a weekly food waste service launched in 2026.
North Kesteven runs three bins in rotation — black, green-lidded and purple-lidded — plus a weekly food caddy and a paid brown garden bin. It's easy to send the wrong one out. My Bin Day texts you the evening before each collection. Just £0.99 a month, no ads, cancel anytime.
Bin setup and collection days come straight from North Kesteven. You can also check the council's own page at n-kesteven.gov.uk.
North Kesteven collects the black general-waste bin, the green-lidded mixed-recycling bin and the purple-lidded paper and card bin on alternating fortnightly weeks, with a weekly food waste caddy. The green-lidded bin takes plastics, tins, cans and glass; the purple-lidded bin is paper and card only. Garden waste is a paid subscription (brown bin) collected fortnightly. Lincolnshire County Council handles disposal via the North Hykeham Energy from Waste plant.
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.

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