Since the March 2026 changes, Stockton-on-Tees runs an alternating red-week / blue-week rota — and working out which week you're in, and which containers go out, catches a lot of people out. Miss it and you're waiting a fortnight for general waste.
Stockton-on-Tees collects recycling and food waste weekly, with general (non-recyclable) waste every two weeks on an alternating red-week and blue-week pattern. Your calendar's red and blue weeks tell you when general waste goes out. Bins and containers should be at the kerbside by 7am on your collection day.
Bin setup and collection days come straight from Stockton. You can also check the council's own page at stockton.gov.uk.
Stockton-on-Tees collects recycling and food waste weekly, and general waste fortnightly on an alternating red-week / blue-week pattern. Your exact day depends on your address — My Bin Day reads your council schedule and texts you the evening before each collection so you never have to count fortnights.
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.
