Common questions

When are bins collected in South Oxfordshire?

South Oxfordshire collects the black general-rubbish bin and the green recycling bin on alternating fortnightly weeks, with a weekly food waste caddy. The green bin takes paper, card, plastics, tins, cans and glass. Garden waste is a paid subscription (around £78 a year) collected fortnightly from a brown bin. Oxfordshire 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 South Oxfordshire'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 South Oxfordshire council service?

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