Bin Collections Across Harborough Hit By Covid-19 Outbreak
Written by HFM News on 17th November 2021
Bin collections across Harborough are being disrupted after an outbreak of Covid-19 at the depot used by collection crews.
A number of staff working for Harborough District Council’s waste contractor, FCC Environment, are self-isolating, resulting in staff shortages.
Vehicle breakdowns have also added to delays in emptying some residents’ bins.
People are being asked to leave bins that have not been emptied out at the kerbside, as crews work to catch-up.
Councillor Jon Bateman, Cabinet Member for Environmental Services and Waste Management at Harborough District Council, explained more to Hfm:
