Rubbish Collection
Tonbridge & Malling Borough Council provide rubbish collection services.

There are communal bins for general household waste (black bag waste) and for recycling (cardboard, glass, plastics) on the ground floor with access from outside, on the Castle side of the building, in the same room that has the gas meters.

There is a weekly black bag collection on Friday (always best to get things downstairs on Thursday evening) and a fortnightly collection of recycling waste on Wednesdays.

Please see the TMBC site for the recycling dates, and for other rubbish/refuse services e.g. bulky items.
