Grit bins
If you can, clear snow from the pavement outside your home and those of vulnerable neighbours. Use grit from the nearest grit bin. Keeping your pavements clear is hugely helpful to your community.
Report an empty / damaged grit bin
If your grit bin is not listed on our pages and you live in a newer housing development, the grit bin on your street may be the responsibility of your housing developer. Please call your developer or factor for the bin to be refilled, in this instance.
Or call 0131 270 7500.
