Mansfield Council bin collections put on hold after snow hits the area
Mansfield Council has temporarily suspended bin collections today (Friday) after heavy snow caused by Storm Goretti.
On its Facebook page, the council said: “Snow and sleet overnight have made many roads unsafe for our crews.
"Collections cannot go ahead right now – safety comes first.
“Please leave your bin out if it’s safe to do so.
"You don’t need to report a missed collection, we’ll return as soon as conditions improve.
"While some main roads are clear, side roads remain too risky for our lorries. We’re monitoring the weather and will update you as soon as we know more.
"Thank you for your patience and understanding.”
