a) 70 years of age or older and live alone

b) Long term disabilities or health issues which prevent you from putting your own bin or bags out.

c) All of the residents within your house fall into category A or B

If you would like to discuss this with someone, please call our contact centre on 0845 9072244 and they will be happy to help.
