We have two Facebook groups for the local community to use.
Please join both groups to keep up to date with any local issues, businesses, sales, etc.
A local community group for the residents of Badger Hill Estate in York, to keep up with local news, events, or to ask questions/advice from other locals.
Residents' Facebook Group
A local community group for the residents of Badger Hill Estate in York, to sell/donate and buy items, whether it be furniture, children's clothes/toys, appliances etc. Also for advertising local and independent businesses.
Sales Facebook Group
Your property will have three black/green plastic recycling boxes for card, paper, glass, and plastic/metal/foil containers.
You will also have two large wheelie bins: a black one for normal household waste and a green one for garden waste.
Please make sure you separate your household waste correctly to increase the potential for recycling.
From August 2024, you now have to pay to subscribe for garden waste collection. All information can be found here: www.york.gov.uk/GardenWasteSubscriptionScheme
Collections on Badger Hill are on Monday mornings (from around 07:10am) so it is best to place your bins and recycling containers outside your home the evening before.
Please note that the containers should be removed from the street as soon as possible following emptying.
Please note, in the event of a Bank Holiday, the collection can sometimes roll into the following working day. Follow the given dates on the Collection Calendar provided to your address by the council, and if not collected on the given date, leave your bins out an extra 24 hours so the Council have a chance to catch up.
The Council operates an alternate week system - black bins only one week, and green bins plus all recycling boxes the other. All households are provided with a new Collection Calendar every Autumn but, if you lose this document, it can be downloaded from the Council's website by entering your address at Waste Collection Calendar
The dates for 2024 can be found by clicking here, or see image below:
Hazel Court Household Waste Recycling Centre is the local tip, and can be used for large amounts of household waste and recycling.
See the website for a full list of disposable/recyclable items.
The on-site staff can help carry larger items and will point you in the right direction of which bin to use.

Freecycle is a non-profit movement of people who are giving and getting stuff for free in their local areas.
It's all about reuse and keeping good stuff out of landfills, so rather than binning your household items, consider giving them to someone who may be able to use them. Plus, membership is free!
Here's how it works:
When you sign up, you join one or more local Town groups and/or invite some local friends to form a Friends Circle. You make posts about things you want to gift or receive.
Other members reply and then you arrange a pickup time and location. Just like that, you've saved something from going to a landfill and given it a new life.
Note: Everything posted must be free, legal and appropriate for all ages.
