Refuse & recycling

Each year the Parish Council organises a village Spring clean with the aid of village-based volunteer organisations and individuals. By working together we pick up litter and help to keep the village an enjoyable place for all residents and visitors.

If you would like to participate look out for the dates in the Village News and on the noticeboards. During the rest of the year, the Parish Council employs a Village Tidier to pick up litter and empty the bins, but we all have a responsibility to keep our village tidy. Wherever you are please take your rubbish home or dispose of it responsibly.

Dog fouling

It is an offence not to pick up after a dog and offensive to members of the public to see dog bags dumped on the ground and in hedges. To assist dog owners, there are more than a dozen dog bins located around the village.

If a dog bin is full, please report it to Cherwell District Council by calling phone: 01295 227007 or email customer.service@cherwell-dc.gov.uk

Litter bins

There are also a large number of litter bins around the village and a number of small recycling bins suitable for newspapers, magazines, plastic bottles and cans. 

Recycling bins

Glass recycling bins can be found in Cassington Road at the end of the cul-de-sac that runs off the Cresswell Road/Oxford Industrial Park roundabout.

Furniture and large items
