ABC Borough Council: will the bins be collected and are the leisure and recycling centres open on August bank holiday?

The council said bins will be collected as normal in most parts of the borough. However, a reduced bin collection service will be operating in the wider Armagh area due to ongoing industrial action.

Householders are asked to leave their bins out at your normal collection point by 7.30am.

All of the council’s household recycling centres will be closed, as will all council offices.
