Order a bin

If you move into a house in Croydon, the previous resident should have left the bins for you. If they haven't, you will need to order a replacement.

Larger bin

If you have 5 or more people living in your property, or you have a medical condition that generates a lot of waste, you can request a larger general waste bin by phoning the contact centre on 020 8726 6000.
