Garden waste collections are fortnightly (with the exception of the Christmas and New Year period when collections are usually suspended).
To get a green bin for garden waste you will need a licence.
Our garden waste collection service has now reached its maximum subscription/collection capacity and we are unable to issue any new or additional licences or sacks for the remainder of the year.
The sign up process for 2022 to 2023 will resume from mid February 2022 where licences will be available to purchase online again.
You can recycle garden waste for free at Dix Pit household waste recycling centre
As an alternative to the garden waste service we recommend having a home composter. Discounted bins are available to buy from the Get Composting website.
We will collect:
bark and wood shavings
grass cuttings, hedge clippings and prunings
hay and straw from animal bedding of vegetarian pets, for example, rabbits, guinea pigs
leaves and plant material
wood ash
shrubs, flowers and houseplants
soil bound roots
tree trunks, twigs and branches up to 15 cm in diameter
weeds (non-invasive)
wind fallen fruit from a garden fruit tree
Christmas trees cut into 30cm sections and put inside bin
Do not put any of the following in your green bin:
