Businesses urged to sign up to new waste service
BBCBusinesses on the Isles of Scilly have been reminded to sign up to a new commercial waste service by 31 January.
The Council of the Isles of Scilly said the new service would be introduced on 31 March.
The authority said: "As a result of this change in operations, all small to medium sized businesses, including all self-catering holiday lets and B&Bs that receive a weekly kerbside collection service, or bring waste to a council managed waste site on an off-island, will be required to sign up to the new service by 16:30 on 31 January."
It added it also applied to all small to medium sized businesses on St Mary's, St Agnes, Bryher and St Martin's, whether they paid council tax or non-domestic rates.
"Larger businesses which produce large volumes of waste and recycling for disposal at waste and recycling centres managed by the council will need to contact the waste team separately to discuss their requirements," the authority added.
"The council doesn't manage waste and recycling from Tresco, so existing arrangements for Tresco's commercial waste will not be affected."
