Delivery information

Northampton Sack deliveries, including those for properties eligible for extra capacity, have now been completed across Northampton.

Eligible households should have received 5 packs of 21 sacks, totalling 105 sacks. Please note that if your property has recently transitioned from sacks to bins, you will not have received any sack deliveries.

Missing sacks

If you believe you did not receive your sacks, please contact us by Friday 31 July. Requests submitted after this date will not be considered, and you will need to wait until the next scheduled delivery period, beginning March 2027.

Recycling Sacks Deliveries of clear recycling sacks will begin from September 2026. 

If you have any questions please complete our enquiry form:

New to property

If you have just moved into your property within the last 4 weeks, and the previous tenant has not left any sacks behind, we can deliver you enough sacks to last you until your next delivery.

If you are new to the Northamptonshire area, you can find useful information on moving in our First Time Homeowner page.
