We provide grit bins to help communities that are not on priority gritting routes. This is in addition to our road gritting services.

Please use these to keep local paths and streets clear and safe, and to help elderly neighbours who might not be able to clear the paths adjacent to their own properties.

Use our interactive map below to find your nearest grit bin.

Up to 20kg of red grit is available to residents at our recycling centres:
