Why were areas with Monday collection chosen?

Areas where bins are collected Mondays were chosen for the trial for a range of reasons. There’s an even split between serviced properties with two bins (1,144) and three bins (1,223) which helps us evaluate the trial effectively. Also, choosing an area where bins are collected at the start of the week means there’s time for any missed bins to be collected if needed. Other areas in the district were considered for the trial but weren’t deemed suitable due to a number of factors. These factors included areas under construction, large collection numbers, predominant urban properties, significant tourist activity and contractor resources.
