Garden waste
kerbside collection
It's officially the gardening season!
Your garden waste is now collected every other week
with your black bag and must be placed out by 7am
along with other items to be recycled. Learn more on composting.
Our 'Ring and request' service
Operates during 'slower' gardening months. Next
season runs from 3 December 2012 through to 22 March 2013.
However, if we have another hot March, we may bring bag garden
waste collection from February 2013. A decision
won't be taken until next year when forecasts are available. This
website, our call centre and the press will announce any
change in decision early in 2013.
Collections
Your garden waste may be placed in one of two types of
bag and will
only be collected in these. Both reusable and biodegradable
bags may be purchased from most Council offices.
What's included in garden waste collection?
Any bags containing items in the 'no thanks' column will not be
collected, meaning the bag will be left by crews.
