In terms of bulky waste collections, the council is putting measures in place to cater for citizens to deliver bulk waste to HRCs.

Given the demand on resources, the council is asking citizens to either dispose of bulky waste at HRCs or alternatively store this at their property until it can be collected by council staff at a later date.

The public is asked to continue to register their request for bulky waste collections, if required; however, these will not be actioned at this time.

Meanwhile, the council's three allotments in Mid and East Antrim will remain open for the foreseeable future.

The local government authority is encouraging plot holders only to access these sites and adhere to social distancing guidance.
