If you don’t pay for collection

• You can take your garden waste to a Recycling Centre or compost your garden waste at home.
• You can return your brown bin or keep it but we cannot repair or replace it if it's lost or damaged.

Why do we charge for collecting garden waste

• Council Tax covers a wide range of services, including collection of household waste/recycling but it does not cover garden waste.
• To ensure we can offer garden waste collection we need to charge a fee to cover the cost of collection and disposal of this waste.
