North Kesteven District Council has suspended its refuse and recycling services from today (Friday) and throughout the coming week (February 15 to 19).
The council says this is an unprecedented break in service, but has been necessary due to a third of the team having to self-isolate following transmission of the Covid-19 virus.
NKDC says it is hoped that following this break in service, all waste and street scene operations will resume on Monday, February 22.
Waste collections in North Kesteven have been suspended for more than a week. (44390286)
A reasonable amount of side waste will be accepted on the first recycling bin collection across the network, plus on household collections for Friday customers whose collection is missed this week.
