Thurrock bin crews' early morning start as they tackle collection backlog

By Neil Speight 27th Jun 2020

THURROCK Council bin crews were out and about from 6am this morning (Saturday, 27 June) as they attempted to catch up on a backlog of missed collections.

The council announced yesterday that many bins in the west of the borough had not been collected as scheduled, though it gave no reason.

A statement said: "Our crews have been working hard in the hot weather.

"Unfortunately some bins were not collected in Chafford Hundred, West Thurrock, Purfleet and South Ockendon.

"Please leave your bins out."
