Patrick bin collection days

Patrick is the parish of Glen Maye, Dalby and Foxdale on the Island’s west coast, with the mining village of Foxdale at its heart. The Commissioners run their own refuse collection but publish nothing online, so this page is built from the Isle of Man Government’s pages and gives the Clerk’s number for your collection day.

Check your bin day

Use Patrick’s own page for your bin day

Isle of Man local authorities publish collection days as fixed weekdays, road lists, maps or PDF calendars rather than an address search BinWeek’s lookup service can query, so the page links to the authority’s own page and lets you set your own bin day.

These dates are the ones you enter. BinWeek does not get them from Patrick. Check them on the council’s site (opens in a new tab) (www.gov.im).
