South Hams District Council covers Totnes, Ivybridge, Dartmouth, Kingsbridge and the villages of the south Devon coast. It runs a kerbside-sort recycling service into boxes and a reusable sack, with weekly food but fortnightly refuse.
South Hams sorts recycling into boxes and a sack at the kerb, with food weekly but rubbish fortnightly — a lot to keep straight. My Bin Day texts you the evening before each collection so the right containers go out. Just £0.99 a month, no ads, cancel anytime.
Bin setup and collection days come straight from South Hams. You can also check the council's own page at southhams.gov.uk.
South Hams collects the black rubbish bin fortnightly, with recycling and food weekly. Recycling is kerbside-sorted into boxes (glass, cans, paper, card) and a white reusable sack for plastics; a silver food caddy is collected weekly. Where properties aren't suitable for bins, seagull-proof sacks are used for refuse. Garden waste is a paid subscription collected fortnightly from a brown bin. Devon 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.
Yes. We track South Hams's published schedule, including the shifts that bank holidays and seasonal changes cause, so your reminder always reflects the real collection date.
No — My Bin Day is an independent service and is not affiliated with South Hams or any council. We simply read the council's published collection schedule and send you a friendly reminder.
