We are now offering a chargeable Garden Waste Collection Service for garden waste.

The decision to introduce charges was taken in September 2024 when the Council announced its Budget Delivery Plan to tackle financial challenges.

Information about the Garden Waste Collection Service

The optional service will be charged to residents who sign up to it, with the new service starting from April 2025.

The cost per year is £50, per bin (based on fortnightly collection over 50 weeks).

You can sign up for the service anytime, but the annual subscription runs from 1st April 2025 to 31st March 2026.
