These assume the citizen can search for their address and the relevant UPRN has been obtained.

Next collections

To find basic information about the waste services available to a property and when their next collections are, call:

/services?uprn=123456789

This will return a list of relevant services with basic metadata and at least one collection listed for last and next collections. See Services for more information. If collection information is needed covering a wider timespan, use start_date and end_date query parameters.

Missed bins

Citizens contacting the council to report a bin not emptied is a common problem. Often it is because of an error on the part of the citizen, for example it is contaminated.

Events represent unexpected issues that arose during collections. Find events related to a property with the events endpoint:

/events?uprn=123456789

This also includes related street events. These will have a date that corresponds to a collection task. If possible they will reference a specific task.
