Which council collects Stokes Croft?
Stokes Croft is in Bristol City Council, England.
That is the council that decides your collection day, supplies your bins and publishes the
schedule — so it is the council name to look for on any official bin information.
This trips people up more than it should. Council boundaries rarely match the suburb names
people actually use, and a suburb can sit on the edge of one council while the shops you drive
to are in the next one. If you have just moved to Stokes Croft, or you are checking on behalf of a
rental, Bristol City Council is who you are dealing with. Our full

Why your street may differ from the rest of Stokes Croft
Knowing the council is only half of it. Bristol City Council divides its area into collection zones so
the trucks can work through it across the week, and those zone lines do not follow suburb
boundaries. A single suburb the size of Stokes Croft is often split across two or more collection
days, which is why a neighbour a few streets away can be a reliable-sounding but wrong source.
The other half is which week you are in.
, and food waste is weekly.
Anything on a fortnightly cycle means counting weeks, and public holidays shift the count.
The checker above returns the actual next date for each bin, so there is nothing to count.
