Waste collections city centre (march 2025-) - open data

City Centre collections, only. Please refer to our other dataset for information on all collections.

This dataset has been created to support the Waste Collections Postcode Finder on stirling.gov.uk. The information held within this dataset has been redacted to meet Open Data requirements and licencing and contains no address information other than the UPRN.

This dataset is indicative rather a definitive overview of collections due to the nature of addressing information.

Processing;

The data was created using the following processes, sources, and datasets;

  • An extract of the Ordnance Survey's AddressBase Premium address product was processed and, where required, also reference against Stirling Council's Corporate Address Gazetteer. 
  • The five waste routes are processed into a single dataset. This dataset set contains information on Collection Day, Week, and Stream type.
  • For the purposes of this dataset, UPRN information is matched to the Ordnance Survey's Open URPN product.

Updates;
  • Updates will be supplied as and when required by the supplying service, or between six to twelve weeks.
Schema;
  • OPEN_UPRN : The UPRN (Unique Property Reference Number) from the address gazetteers
