In Reading your grey and red bins go out on alternate weeks and your food waste bin goes out every week, all on the same weekday — so the question is usually which bin, not which day. Type your postcode and pick your address to read the real dates from Reading Borough Council's own service, and add your email if you'd like a reminder the evening before.
