The Garden Waste Collection Scheme is a yearly service where we pick up your garden waste from your home, using a brown bin or special compostable bags. You'll need to pay for this service and sign up to start using it.

Rejoining the scheme after you have left
You may reapply but may not be able to rejoin immediately as we have to plan each season in advance.
If your collections stopped due to non-payment, your subscription contract will be backdated to when it originally ended. If 1 year has lapsed a new contract will be generated.
