A website glitch caused confusion about scheduled bin collection days in Ipswich over the weekend. Ipswich Borough Council has since removed the bin day checker from its site and is working to correct the issue. Residents have been assured their bins will continue to be collected on the usual day.
James Fairclough, the council’s director of operations, apologised for the mix-up.
