Due to the red weather warning now in place for Storm Éowyn, there will be closures and disruption to many Belfast City Council services on Friday 24 January.
There will be no bin or Bryson Recycling box collections on Friday. The advice to residents and businesses whose bins or boxes are due for collection on Friday is to not leave them out tonight (Thursday).
Bins should be left out for collection by 7am on Saturday morning instead. If your bin is not emptied then, please present it again by 7am on Sunday morning.
Any further updates, including rescheduled collection of Bryson boxes, will be added to the council website, once confirmed – belfastcity.gov.uk/weather – and shared on social media - follow @belfastcc on X/Twitter and @belfastcitycouncil on Facebook.
All council parks, playgrounds and pitches will be closed on Friday, along with all community and leisure centres and council buildings, including City Hall, Belfast Zoo and St George’s Market.
Full details of all impacted services are at belfastcity.gov.uk/weather – this will be updated further as more information is confirmed.
Further help and advice for residents regarding the weather warning is also available on the NI Direct website.
