Green waste collection service

Subscription

Click here to subscribe for 2020/2021 (1st May 2020 - 30th April 2021) 

Please call 01253 891000 if you wish to subscribe from now to the end of April 2020.

Subscription and cost

For single year subscriptions, the cost will be £35 for an initial bin and additional bins subscribed for at the same time remain at £25 for each additional bin.

Sign up by Direct Debit before 24th March 2020 and get a £5.00 discount, with the annual subscription charge for the fortnightly green bin collection costing £30 for the first bin and £25 for each additional bin. This equates to £1.36 per collection (22 collections per year as there are no collections over the festive period). This is a non-refundable/non-transferable fixed cost for the period 1 May to 30 April each year. The discount reflects the reduced costs of administering the scheme by paying by direct debit. To show our commitment to our customers we are passing this reduction on to them.

The green waste subscription service takes effect from 1 May each year. You can subscribe at any time during the year. The annual charge will remain the same. However, if you wish to sign up for annual Direct Debit, this must be done by the 24 March and payment will be taken during the first week of April each year. You will be notified by email at least three working days in advance of the payment being taken. If you signed up for Direct Debit last year then you do not need to do anything (unless your circumstances have changed), we will send you an email to confirm everything is still setup.

Please note: green bins will only be issued with a valid subscription

Hint and tips: sharing a bin with a neighbour would halve the costs for you both

Additional bins

The first bin will be charged at the rate of £35 (£5 discount if subscribing by direct debit) for one bin collected on a fortnightly basis for the period the service runs, but if paying for multiple bins on the initial contact a discounted rate of £25 will be applied for each additional bin. The discount for additional bins is only applicable when paying at the initial subscription stage. Additional bins required at a later date will be charged at £35 per bin. To be eligible for the discount for additional bins the subscription shall be for one address only.

Once subscribed

  • If you subscribe before the end of March, stickers will be issued during April.  For subscriptions after this date, the sticker will be issued for you within 10 working days of payment being received. Please attach the sticker to your bin as instructed so we know you have paid the subscription
  • Collections will continue on a fortnightly basis and collection dates remain the same. Please ensure you present your bin by 7.00am on your scheduled collection day

New builds

If you have recently moved into a new build please contact us to find out about ordering new bins and subscribing to the green waste service.  

What goes in your green bin

Only garden waste must be placed in the green bin. Food waste should be disposed of in your grey bin or home composted.

Unwanted green bins

If you no longer require your green bin, you can request the removal of the bin by completing the online form. Only empty green bins will be removed and will be collected within five working days.
