On Monday 4th July 2022 from 10am to 3pm, CRT work boats will be collecting rubbish between Bath and Bradford on Avon. If you have any bulky items such as mattresses, barrels of oil, waste from boat fit-outs etc, just give them a shout as they pass. They will also be doing some litter picking as they go, and boaters are welcome to do their own litter picking and dispose of it as the work boat passes.
Liveaboard boaters obviously cannot use Councils’ bulky rubbish collections, and are prevented by either lack of transport or lack of proof of local residence from using local authority household recycling centres.
CRT has said that it aims to provide this service on the K&A every three months. The next rubbish collection will be in September, and it is hoped that a rubbish collection by boat will also be done in the Long Pound.
