Due to scheduled maintenance, the commenting function of the planning portal will be unavailable on 3 and 4 October. During this time please send any comments to neighbour.responses@lichfielddc.gov.uk 

We're really sorry but we are currently experiencing delays with replacement and additional bin and bag deliveries.

  • We're aiming to deliver outstanding blue, garden bins and smaller 180-litre black bins by 9 October.
  • We are however sorry that deliveries of blue bags and standard 240L black bins are likely to take longer – find out what to do if you are waiting for one of these.

If you've already submitted a request, there’s no need to submit another one - we’ll deliver your bin or bag as soon as we can. 

 

If you have no usable bin and need urgent assistance, please WhatsApp us on 01543 308171.

Temporary relocation

When a pitch becomes unsuitable, we will relocate consent holders where suitable alternative street trading pitches exist.

We may consult with the highway authority to identify suitable alternative pitches for the purpose of relocating the displaced street trader.
