Bag collection
Residents who need to dispose of items such as stoma bags, colostomy bags, bandages and dressings can use our bag collection service.
This collection is made every Wednesday and bags should be left on your doorstep the night before or by 7am on the day of collection. Our team will leave new bags for you when they collect your disposed bags.
To order your first set of bags or to arrange a collection, call our Contact Centre on 01895 556000 (Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm).
Sharps box collection
Residents who need to dispose of needles, syringes, lancets (used with finger pricking devices) or clippers can use our sharps box collection.
This collection is made on the first Thursday of every month. However due to a particularly busy period, if collections are not made on a Thursday, we will continue to collect on Friday.
Boxes should be left on your doorstep the night before or by 7am on the day of collection.
To obtain sharps boxes, visit your GP or local pharmacist.
To arrange a collection, call our Contact Centre on 01895 556000 (Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm).
