2026 calendars and Christmas tree collections
The calendars on our collection day finder are currently for 2025. We'll update the finder with 2026 calendars in December.
Until then, you can download your 2026 calendar from the Bristol Waste Company website. Christmas tree collections are marked on the 2026 calendars.
If you do not know your collection day, you can use the collection day finder to find this out, then download the relevant 2026 calendar from the Bristol Waste Company website.

- if you have forgotten to put your recycling or bin out for collection, put them out on your next collection date
- put bins and recycling boxes out after 6pm the day before collection and before 6am on the morning of collection, they should be at the edge of your property and visible from the road
- take your bin off the highway as soon as possible after the collection
