Luton Council

🍂 Our 2025 garden waste season starts on the 3 February 2026 and there’s still plenty of time to sign up. 🍃 If you’d like your brown garden waste bin collected you can find more information and sign up 👉luton.gov.uk/gardenwaste

@KingKhanWriter Thanks for reporting this. We’ve shared it with our parking enforcement team and the location has been reviewed to ensure appropriate enforcement going forward.

@lutoncouncil @LutonLabGroup Traffic wardens didn’t even put a ticket on this car, both just looked at it and walked past. Moor Street.

@Amiooo_k Hi, yes you can request a glass bin by filling out this form: myforms.luton.gov.uk/service/Reques…

@lutoncouncil Any chance a household can get a glass bin, our neighbour keeps the shared one in their house. It’s a headache trying to throw glass away

📢 Big changes are coming to recycling in Luton! What’s changing from late March? 🍎 Weekly food waste collections (new caddies arriving from February) 🥛 More frequent glass collections (moving from monthly to every 2 weeks) Why the changes? This is part of the government’s national Simpler Recycling initiative   Collecting food waste separately means: ✅ Your black bin will be fresher ✅ Your food waste is turned into renewable energy and fertiliser  More info via the link in the comments 🔗

ℹ️ There will be overnight closures on the M1 between junctions 14 - 15 on select nights from Mon. 12th Jan. to Tues. 20th Jan. Please check your journey to or from the airport and find alternative travel arrangements where necessary. More details here 👉 orlo.uk/FgKW0

❄️ Cold weather update ❄️ Very cold conditions this week, with light snow expected Tuesday–Thursday and a small chance again Friday–Saturday. What we’re doing: ✔️ Monitoring conditions 24/7 ✔️ Gritting twice daily ✔️ 150+ salt bins available on roads and public footpaths ✔️ Priority routes treated first (including some high-footfall footways like the town centre) 🚗 Please park considerately – blocked junctions and double parking can prevent gritting vehicles getting through. ℹ️ Check gritting routes and grit bin locations via the link in the comments 🔗
