Isle of Wight Bin Collection Services Cancelled Today

The Isle of Wight Council has suspended all bin collection services today.

The move comes as a result of a red weather warning being issued with Storm Eunice set to cause severe disruption.

Natasha Dix, head of waste services, said yesterday:

"During high winds, bins can be blown over risking the waste being strewn into the environment."

The IW Council earlier issued the following advice regarding bins:

  • Make sure bin lids are closed and secure.
  • If there is no shelter at the kerbside, place bins in clusters with your neighbours' bins.
  • Place excess card, paper and mixed recycling in clear or white sacks and weigh down if possible.
