How to report a missed bin collection in Shropshire

Before you report: Shropshire Council will not reattempt a collection if your bin was not presented correctly. Bins must be out by 7am on collection day, lid fully closed, correct waste inside and accessible from the pavement.

  1. Check your bin was presented correctly. Bin at the boundary of your property, lid fully closed, correct waste inside. If not, wait for your next shropshire bin collection day.
  2. Confirm the crew has visited your road. Only report once crews have been to your street and your bin specifically was missed.
  3. Report as soon as possible after your collection day. Go to www.shropshire.gov.uk and complete the missed collection form with your address and bin type.
  4. Leave your bin out. Keep it at the front of your property. Shropshire Council will return within as soon as possible.
