“We want to reassure residents that, as with the first lockdown in March, waste collections will not be affected, and our crews will continue to deliver a dedicated service across Newark and Sherwood.
“I would like to express my thanks to residents who have continued to recycle during the pandemic and also offer my thanks to our hard-working crews as they continue to sustain all waste collection service during these unprecedented times.”
