Seafront Bins

/in /by

Clevedon Town Council has recently taken responsibility for some of the waste bins along our seafront, as part of the ongoing devolution of services from North Somerset Council.

While we’re in a period of transition between waste contractors, we are trying to get the timetable right, and we are aware that some bins have unfortunately been overflowing.

We’re working hard behind the scenes to get things running smoothly, and we really appreciate your patience and understanding as we take over these assets.

Thank you for bearing with us as we work to improve services for our town.

We’re considering introducing a simple booking system for the Salthouse Fields Tennis Courts to make it easier to plan your games.

At the moment, the courts are available on a turn-up-and-play basis – but that does mean there’s a chance you might arrive to find the court already in use.

We’d love to hear what you think!

Help us shape the best experience for everyone.
