Council services
- Council Offices in Oxted are open with some officers working from home.
- Recycling and rubbish collections are happening if it is safe. High winds can make it difficult to lift the bins on to the vehicles. The vehicles may struggle to get access to homes if roads are blocked due to flooding or fallen trees. If your bin has not been collected, please leave it at the edge of your property.
- Council house emergency repairs, including heating - staff will be carrying out repairs as long as they can access the property. No working outside at height will happen during windy/storm conditions.
- Car parks: Open.
- Street cleaning: Staff will be working as normal, but may have to respond to emergencies elsewhere.
Please visit our emergency planning webpage for more information.
