Household waste (refuse) collection
For guidance on how to get rid of your waste if you are either self-isolating or confirmed to have Coronavirus is provided on the Love Essex website.
All bagged household waste must only be placed out for collection on the designated collection day and left on the kerbside at the front of the property or we will assume you do not need a collection. Please use black sacks only; as the use of any other colour may result in your waste not being collected as it may be assumed it contains recyclables or garden waste.
All domestic household properties in the Brentwood area receive a weekly refuse pick up. To find your Refuse Collection Day please use the My Property facility.
Your household waste needs to be placed out for collection on the specified day.
Refuse must be available from 7.30am (collection times may vary) DO NOT place refuse sacks on the kerb side prior to your collection day due to animals scavenging the black sacks and causing litter issues.
