We are now accepting garden waste recycling subscriptions for 2024/25. 

Garden waste contracts are due to end on 31 March 2024. To continue receiving collections, you will need to make a payment.  You can make a quick and easy payment online

If you are a Direct Debit customer and wish to renew you do not need to do anything. This will be automatically paid on 28 March 2024. 

If payment is not received by 3 May 2024, we will not empty your garden waste bin. 

Fees

The charges below are for collection during the period of 1 April 2024 to 31 March 2025 inclusive:

  • Under 75 years old: £84
  • 75 years and over: £63

Stickers

When you renew, you will be sent an orange sticker in the post. You must write your address on the sticker and attach it to the side of your bin. You should receive this within 10 working days of making payment.

Direct Debit customers will receive their letter and sticker from us by 26 April 2024. 

If you have not received your sticker in the expected timeframe, you should request a replacement.

Your garden recycling will be collected once a fortnight on your scheduled collection days throughout the whole year, except for two weeks in January. For this year’s renewal period, the garden waste service will be suspended from 6 to 17 January 2025.
