The council and our waste collection partners Allerdale Waste Services would like to apologise for the issues which have affected some properties' garden waste collections over the last couple of weeks. The issues have been caused by self-isolation and other staff absences.
The advice for households who've not had their collection this week is to take bins back in and present them on their next scheduled garden waste collection day.
Households are advised to continue checking our website and social media accounts for the latest information on collections.
England has moved into Step 4 from 19 July 2021.

Some parts of Allerdale are smoke control areas which mean you cannot emit smoke from a chimney unless you are using an authorised fuel. You can find out more about smoke control areas on the GOV.Uk website.
If you think there is an issue with smoke in these areas, you can report it to us.
