Stafford Borough Council covers Stafford, Stone, Eccleshall and the surrounding Staffordshire villages. Note the colour trap: here the green bin is for general waste, not recycling. It runs a three-bin and blue-bag service, with a weekly food waste collection launched in April 2026.
Stafford's green bin is for general waste, not recycling — an easy one to get wrong. Between that, the blue bin, blue bag, weekly food caddy and a paid brown garden bin, My Bin Day keeps you right with a text the evening before each collection. Just £0.99 a month, no ads, cancel anytime.
Bin setup and collection days come straight from Stafford. You can also check the council's own page at staffordbc.gov.uk.
Stafford collects the green general-waste bin one week, then the blue recycling bin, blue paper/card bag and brown garden bin the next, on an alternating fortnightly cycle. A weekly food waste caddy launched on 13 April 2026. Be careful — the green bin is for general rubbish here. The blue bin takes glass, cans and plastics; the blue bag takes paper and card. Garden waste is a paid subscription (around £43.50 a year, brown bin). Staffordshire 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 Stafford'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 Stafford or any council. We simply read the council's published collection schedule and send you a friendly reminder.
