bin collection

Curbside waste removal

Bin collection is the scheduled pickup of household waste by municipal or private services.

Chiefly British, equivalent to American garbage collection or trash pickup.

The term refers both to the service itself and to the designated day: What day is bin collection on your street?

I nearly missed bin collection this morning.
