West Devon Borough Council's waste contractor, FCC Environment, along with WDBC staff, will be back in town from 2am on Thursday to carry out a major clean up operation. They will work throughout the early hours collecting rubbish in an effort to make the streets presentable by the time residents start their day. For more information on the clean up operation please visit West Devon Borough Council Website.
