Uttlesford District Council covers Saffron Walden, Great Dunmow, Stansted and the villages of north-west Essex. Refuse and recycling alternate fortnightly, with a weekly food waste collection.
Between the fortnightly grey and green bins, the weekly food caddy and a paid garden bin, Uttlesford's schedule is easy to muddle. My Bin Day texts you the evening before each collection so the right bin goes out. Just £0.99 a month, no ads, cancel anytime.
Bin setup and collection days come straight from Uttlesford. You can also check the council's own page at uttlesford.gov.uk.
Uttlesford collects the grey-lidded general-waste bin (180L) and the green-lidded recycling bin (240L) on alternating fortnightly weeks, with a weekly food waste caddy (brown, 23L). The green bin takes paper, card, plastics, cans and glass. Garden waste is a paid subscription collected fortnightly. A small number of properties unsuitable for wheelie bins use sacks and boxes instead. Essex 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 Uttlesford'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 Uttlesford or any council. We simply read the council's published collection schedule and send you a friendly reminder.
