The following information has been received from Shropshire Council:
Dear Councillors,
I am writing to inform you of disruption today to the garden/food waste collection service for some properties in your division. Veolia’s Wem depot has had a significant number of Covid 19 cases and self-isolation which has meant that some garden waste collection rounds will not be completed today. I have listed the areas below and also attached a spreadsheet which lists all post codes affected, although that list is long and rather cumbersome.
This information will also be distributed via the Council’s website and social media channels.
THE COLLECTION SERVICES FOR RECYCLING AND GENERAL RUBBISH HAVE NOT BEEN AFFECTED.
Our advice to any residents affected is to bring their bin back in and present it again in their next scheduled collection day in two weeks time. I will keep you posted about any further developments as information becomes available.
Areas Affected:
| ADDERLEY | ASH | BETTON |
| BLACK PARK | CAYNTON | CHILDS ERCALL |
| EATON UPON TERN | ERCALL HEATH | HIGHER HEATH |
| HINSTOCK | HOPTON HOWLE | NORTON IN HALES |
| OLLERTON | PREES | PREES HEATH |
| SOULTON | STANTON UPON HINE HEATH | STOKE UPON TERN |
| TIBBERTON | WHITCHURCH |
