Wyre collects food waste every week. Weekly food collections commenced on 13 April 2026, on the same day as the other bins, after a requirement dated 31 March 2026. Put the caddy out by 7am. Households should have a 5L kitchen caddy, liners, and a 23L outdoor bin. The page says food waste is 70% water, and that methane from landfill is 25 times more potent than carbon dioxide. It does not list which foods are accepted or refused.

Garden waste is a paid-for service. The green waste page says you subscribe, and that the bin itself is not included. It does not print a price. You can still join for collections before 30 June 2026 by calling 01253 891000. Subscriptions for 1 July 2026 to 30 June 2027 can be taken at any time in the year. A neighbour can share, but one property has to register and pay. There are 22 fortnightly green waste collections per year, with a brief closure over the festive period. Collection dates stay the same as the other bins. Only garden waste goes in the green bin. The page does not name grasses, leaves or branches. You need a myWyre account to sign up.

Collections can happen any time between 7am and 5pm. A bin can be missed because it was not out, was in the wrong place, held the wrong materials, or had side waste, or because the round is not finished. There is a separate form for a missed food caddy. Veolia runs the refuse and recycling service. Nothing is collected on Christmas Day or Boxing Day. The refuse page says the council will say in advance if a day changes. A missed bin cannot be reported until the day after it was due, and it must be reported within two working days of the scheduled day.

The household recycling page says many items can be recycled in the household bins and tells you to read what goes in each container. The container page that loaded only describes the grey bin.
