Dog bins
Carlisle City Council’s Area Maintenance section maintains and
empties approximately 900 litterbins in the city and rural area.
Refuse from properties or businesses waste should not be placed in
litterbins, as this is an offence. Litterbins are emptied weekly,
or when full.
The bins are also provided to allow dog walkers to dispose of
used poop scoops and bagged waste. Carlisle City Council
is phasing out the specific red dog bins in favour of providing
more litter bins.
Litterbins in park areas are maintained and emptied by the City
Councils Green Spaces section. In some rural areas the Parish
Councils have their own litterbins which are not maintained or
emptied by us.
