Clean Air Night takes place on 22 January 2025 and this year is designed to spark a conversation helping people to make informed decisions about how to heat their homes.

All Wirral households will get a grey bin (recycling) collection this week, following last week’s green bin-only collections.

Among the most significant changes to the draft strategy is the shifting of the priority of some of the proposals to reflect concerns raised by residents. These changes could mean further assessment, gathering of data and community engagement will need to be carried out before proposals move forward.

From Monday 20 January, all household bin collections will be for grey bins (recycling).

All bin collections are suspended until Monday 13 January and whatever day you usually have a bin collection – this will be for your green general waste bin.
