Aberdeenshire Council recycling and waste services across the festive period
Ewan Wallace, Environment and Sustainability Head of Service, said: “As we head into the colder months, we want to thank you in advance for your support of our hard-working collection crews and household recycling centre staff. Right now, they are focused on providing a great service for residents and trade customers across Aberdeenshire. “On any given four-week period, there are more than 498,000 collections to be made and we appreciate your patience and understanding if winter weather causes short-term disruptions to your bin collection schedule.”
