Sharps Box Disposal
Ashford Borough Council have notified us that they have stopped accepting sharps boxes at the Gateways and Civic Centre and are directing anyone who brings them in to them to sign up for a home collection instead.
Collections can be booked regularly (such as monthly) or as and when required.
The online sharps collection request form can be found on ABC's website or you can call 01233 331111.
