Properties on a Friday week 1 Waste and Recycling collection incorrectly showing a non-recycling collection due today 19th April 2025.

We are aware of an error impacting Friday week 1 waste collections, which meant some properties showed a non-recycling waste collection due today, 19th April, on Where I Live and the Our Street App, ahead of weekly collections starting from 28th April. This collection was showing in error and the issue which caused this has now been resolved. As per the fortnightly week 1 waste collection still active, your next collection was due Saturday 26th April, and weekly thereafter. Please therefore take your black wheelie bin back in and represent this on your next collection date. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience that this error may have caused.

Landlord Forums

Basildon Council organises and participates in a number of regular local Landlord Forums which offer advice and support to the borough's private landlords.

Landlord Forums provide an ideal opportunity for private landlords and anyone interested in letting a property in the borough to:

  • share their experiences
  • learn about the role Basildon Council can play in support of the private rented sector
  • hear guest speakers talk on a variety of relevant subjects with opportunities to ask questions and discuss issues affecting the borough's landlords

These forums also promote good practice by spreading awareness of landlord's legal obligations, increasing awareness of changes in legislation and allowing the Council to consult with landlords on new policies/ideas.
