I'm sure the collection of large items left by the bins happens twice a month, but does anyone know the dates these collections are made?

Many thanks

I have looked but can't find anything.

Can you suggest where I should be looking?

Right so I've done a bit of legwork.  I suggest that you go to Facebook and look at past posts for ayuntamiento de palomares del Rio.  I couldn't find the days but there's a phone number and email address.  Maybe email them using the translator on your phone and they might come back to you.  Alternatively, join their Facebook site and ask the question.  There's nowhere in recent posts that show a day.  Our bins when we were in the Campo had it taped on the front.  Vera is 9 and 24.

Thanks very much for your reply. I have tried every ayuntamiento and concorcio site I can find and still no luck. Unfortunately I don't do facebook, so can't gain access there. I have emailed the Concorcio office so hopefully might get a reply. (Fingers crossed)

This is what I found out a few weeks ago as I had an old sofa to get rid of. On the website via Facebook they give 3rd, 10th & 18th as pick up dates. I put mine out for the 10th and it sat there until the 18th. If the dates fall on a weekend/fiesta they collect one day later. I hope this helps.

Many thanks for the info. I did notice that there was a collection yesterday the 18th. So hopefully if I put it by the bin just before the 3rd it will go. I'll keep a note of these dates.

You are supposed to put things out the night before collection so that could be why it wasn't taken, so if collection is the 8th put it out the night of the 7th.

Don't understand your post. I didn't put anything out, so nothing was not taken. I am informed that the next collection is the 3rd, as stated in my post so don't know where 8th came from.
