Hello digitalservices@tunbridgewells.gov.uk
Here is your weekly update from Tunbridge Wells Borough Council

Get Crypt-ic with Dr Alice RobertsJoin Alice Roberts to celebrate the paperback publication of her latest book, Crypt. The history of the Middle Ages is typically the story of the rich and powerful; there's barely a written note for most people's lives. But archaeology provides us with another way of learning about past lives - and by using cutting-edge science to examine human remains and burials, it's now possible to unearth astonishing details that give us a new understanding of the past one that's more intimate and inclusive than ever before. Beautifully written and expertly researched by Professor Alice Roberts, Crypt is packed with incredible discoveries that will make you see the history of Britain afresh. Book your tickets now. | |

Your food waste is collected weekly on the same day as your recycling or household waste collection and it may be collected by a separate lorry at a different time of the day.
Got an awkward or bulky item to dispose of? Our bulky waste collection service will remove heavy or large items too big to fit in your bin. To visit the household waste recycling centre at North Farm you must book a slot in advance using the Kent County Council booking system.
Remember you can put old batteries out during your recycling collection week and small electrical items and textiles on your household waste collection week.
Check our waste and recycling pages for more information.
