All residents need to do is to place these items in a carrier bag next to their blue-lidded bin (not inside it) at their next collection date from 5 June onwards.
The collection has been made possible by making two changes to the materials collected via the kerbside collection service from the same date (5 June). Textiles and shredded paper will no longer be collected for recycling via the kerbside scheme.

We’d like extend a warm welcome to anyone and everyone to pop in to our warm church on a Monday (10am-2pm). Drinks and biscuits are available as well as a soup lunch. There will also be plenty of games and fun available – or just a chat if you prefer. We can also fill your hot water bottle or flask to help keep you warm after you’ve left too.
So if you want a warm space in North Bradley, on Mondays, we're the place!

Household batteries to be collected soon as part of Wiltshire kerbside recycling service
We are pleased to confirm that we will soon be able to collect some types of small batteries as part of our kerbside recycling service.
From 5 December, residents will be able to put small household batteries in clear, sealed sandwich bags on top of your blue lidded bin and they will be collected for recycling. Please do not put batteries out for collection earlier than this date.
The batteries that can be put out for collection are ‘D’, ‘C’, ‘AA’, ‘AAA’, 9V and button-type batteries, and these will be kept separate from other recyclable materials on board the collection vehicles.
