Ealing Council is changing to recycling and rubbish collections over the Christmas period.

In some cases the collection will be made four days after the usual dates meaning that some residents will have accumulated nearly three weeks of waste between collections.

The changes to the schedule are due to the bank holidays and local people are encouraged to check their revised dates to ensure that their bins are collected as part of the regular service.

If you live on a red route or have access to communal bins your collection days will not change over the festive period.  

Rubbish and recycling should be left at the front boundary of the property, not on the pavement, by 7am on the collection day.

Refuse and recycling collections will change from Christmas Day and return to normal service Monday, 16 January 2023.

You can also  recycle your Christmas tree by leaving it out as part of your kerbside rubbish and recycling collections, or by  dropping it off at a local park or reuse and recycle centre.

Until 29 January 2023, you can leave your tree on the front edge of your property, to have it taken away for recycling. Trees will be collected on the same day as your refuse collection (black bin) each alternate week. Tree trunks must not exceed 20cm in diameter or be more than six feet tall (taller trees can be cut in two) and ensure all decorations are removed. The service is in place for real trees only, not synthetic ones.

This site remains committed to providing local community news and public interest journalism.

Articles such as the one above are integral to what we do. We aim to feature as much as possible on local societies, charities based in the area, fundraising efforts by residents, community-based initiatives and even helping people find missing pets.

We've always done that and won't be changing, in fact we'd like to do more.

However, the readership that these stories generates is often below that needed to cover the cost of producing them. Our financial resources are limited and the local media environment is intensely competitive so there is a constraint on what we can do.

We are therefore asking our readers to consider offering financial support to these efforts. Any money given will help support community and public interest news and the expansion of our coverage in this area.

A suggested monthly payment is £8 but we would be grateful for any amount for instance if you think this site offers the equivalent value of a subscription to a daily printed newspaper you may wish to consider £20 per month. If neither of these amounts is suitable for you then contact info@neighbournet.com and we can set up an alternative. All payments are made through a secure web site.

One-off donations are also appreciated. Choose The Amount You Wish To Contribute.

If you do support us in this way we'd be interested to hear what kind of articles you would like to see more of on the site – send your suggestions to the editor.

For businesses we offer the chance to be a corporate sponsor of community content on the site. For £30 plus VAT per month you will be the designated sponsor of at least one article a month with your logo appearing if supplied. If there is a specific community group or initiative you'd like to support we can make sure your sponsorship is featured on related content for a one off payment of £50 plus VAT.
