Quite often I forget or neglect the Recycle Bin and the amount of debris that is disposed within it. Whilst I don't feel it to be critical, I would like to know what options exist that maybe associated with Task Scheduler for the Recycle Bin to empty itself automatically eg once a week.

The answer that Cyanfish posted in comments is excellent. You could use that without any third party tools:
An alternative would be using a third-party tool like CCleaner that supports being run from the command prompt and scheduling that with Task Scheduler instead.
CCleaner can be set up to empty the recycle Bin and nothing else, and can then be run on schedule by using the command
C:/Path/To/CCleaner.exe /AUTO
