North Devon Council is reminding residents that waste and recycling collections days will change over the August bank holiday.

There will be no waste or recycling collections on Monday 29 August. Collections during that week will take place one day later than usual starting again on Tuesday 30 August through to Saturday 3 September and returning to normal on Monday 5 September.

Lead Member for the Environment at North Devon Council, Councillor Netti Pearson, says: "Waste and recycling collections are always a day late following a bank holiday.

"If you’re in any doubt about when your collections will take place, please visit North Devon Council's website at any time.

"As always, thank you for your understanding and cooperation."

Residents are being reminded to display their bins and bags by 6am on the morning or evening before their collection.

Full information about which items go in the bin, box or bag can be found online.
