Street Sweeping Schedule

If you would like to check the frequency a road or footpath in Tendring is swept please choose one of the following links:

N.B. The schedule is available either as a excel or pdf. document and should be read with the explanatory notes which can be found further down this page.

If you would like to know the date your road is due to be swept (unless it is daily or weekly which is clearly shown on the schedule), you will need to know the frequency of sweeping (either monthly or 4 x a year) and also the week number, both of which can be found on the schedule. You can then view the calendars - Street Sweeping Calendars pdf. to see when the next sweep is due. For more information see the explanatory notes below.

To report a problem please complete a Waste Crusader Report form, a simple form which can be filled in and submitted online.
