Due to vehicle breakdowns or adverse weather, some collections and access to Recycling Centres may be disrupted
Disruption to bin collections
Bins in the Auld Mart area of Perth were missed today (4/3/26). If you are affected, please leave your bin out for 48 hours and we will aim to collect tomorrow. If we don't get to it in this time then please return your bin to its storage area and re-present your bin on the next scheduled collection day.
Aberfeldy Recycling Centre
Due to current electrical issues affecting site lighting, Aberfeldy Recycling Centre will for safety reasons only be open as daylight hours permit. Repairs are ongoing however we anticipate that the centre will be required to close around 4pm on opening days for the time being. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and will provide a further update once the electrical issues are resolved.
Auchterarder Recycling Centre
Work to improve the surface and parking bay markings in the car park at Auchterarder Public Park is scheduled to begin on Friday 13 March 2026, with no weekend working, and resume on Monday 16 March. It is due to be completed on Wednesday 18 March.
Car parking will not be available during the works, and we would advise anyone coming to Auchterarder Public Park by car to park elsewhere. Spaces are usually available on St Margaret's Drive immediately opposite the Park entrance.
While the nearby Recycling Centre will remain open as usual on Thursday 12, Saturday 14, Sunday 15, Tuesday 17 and Thursday 19 March, the area around the pavilion (including recycling bins) will be busier than usual, so we would encourage anyone coming to drop off waste and recycling to plan their visit accordingly.
Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding while these works are carried out by our contractor.
