Next Week's Coromandel's kerbside rubbish collections will take place a day later due to Monday being a public holiday.

The Thames Coromandel District Council says recycling next week will be on the 'week one schedule'.

The council asks all locals and visitors to make sure wheelie bins and glass crates are on the kerbside on the day of collection by 7:30am.

If by chance you miss your collection or plan to leave town before collection day, please drop off your official blue bag and recycling at your local refuse transfer station.

This service is free of charge but all rubbish must be in the official blue bags to be accepted by transfer stations.

One year after the TCDC launched its new Kerbside rubbish and recycling collection programme about 55 per cent of the total waste collection in the Coromandel has been recycled.

But the TCDC says everyone could do better and is asking locals and visitors to remember to only put plastic, cans, paper and cans into your black wheelie bins. Glass goes in the green crates.

The TCDC would like to remind everyone that whatever goes in the blue bags goes straight into landfill.
